'''Piloswine''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イノムー''' ''Inomoo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ice|Ground}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Swinub}} starting at [[level]] 33, and evolves into {{p|Mamoswine}} when leveled up while knowing {{m|AncientPower}}.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
[[Image:Dawn's Piloswine's eyes.jpg|[[Dawn's Piloswine]]'s eyes|right|thumb]]<br />
Piloswine are big brown furry Pokémon that have an impressive hump on their backs, giving them a hunchbacked appearance. They also have two tusks made of ice, which seem small but can be pretty lethal, and floppy ears which are sensitive to sound. Piloswine’s shaggy coat makes it unable to see, so it checks surroundings with its sensitive pig-like nose instead. Piloswine’s hair is so long that it usually covers its small, hooved legs. <br />
In the 3-D Pokémon console games, as well as the anime, it is shown that Piloswine has two beady eyes in its head; however, these are usually covered up by tufts of fur. <br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
A female Piloswine has shorter tusks than a male.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
<br />
Although its legs are short, its rugged hooves give it sure footing even on icy ground. As an dual {{t|Ice}}- and {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon, Piloswine can also use a variety of moves from both types. Its tusks of ice thicken when it snows.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Piloswine are strong, brave, and undeniably stubborn. Wild Piloswine jealously guard their herd's territory, driving off any creatures that trespass. Domesticated Piloswine are loyal to a fault. There are stories of Piloswine who refuse to go down no matter how hard a battle becomes in an attempt to live up to their trainer's expectations of them.<br />
<br />
If Piloswine charges at an enemy, the hairs on its back stand up straight. It is very sensitive to sound, and because its long hair obscures its sight, it will continue charging repeatedly. <br />
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]<br />
===Habitat===<br />
Piloswine tend to inhabit cold places, such as icy caves, mountainous regions and frozen tundra.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />

==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Piloswine.png|thumb|right|210px|Piloswine in the anime]]<br />
===Major appearances===<br />
====[[Dawn's Mamoswine|Dawn's Piloswine]]====<br />
{{an|Dawn}}'s {{p|Swinub}} [[Evolution|evolved]] into a Piloswine in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle]]''. It later evolved into {{p|Mamoswine}} in ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]''.<br />
<br />
====Other====<br />
[[Pryce's Piloswine]] first appeared in ''[[EP237|As Cold as Pryce]]''. [[Pryce]] thought that his Piloswine had abandoned him when he was a young [[Pokémon Trainer]] after the two of them got hit by a {{p|Magmar}}'s {{m|Fire Blast}} and thus became cold and bitter. When Pryce found his Piloswine in a cave and frozen solid with a Burn-Healing Herb, Pryce let go of his coldness. Pryce used his Piloswine in the [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}} in the [[EP238|following episode]].<br />
<br />
===Minor appearances===<br />
Piloswine made its animated debut in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' as one of the Pokémon captured in the Poacher's cage at the start of the film. Its appearance in the film was very brief, lasting barely a second.<br />
<br />
In ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]'' during the chase between the [[Pichu Brothers]] and a {{p|Houndour}}, the Pichu Brothers disguised themselves as a Piloswine but the Houndour wasn't easily fooled and eventually dismantled the disguise, revealing the Pichu Brothers.<br />

{{Animedexbody|DP104|Piloswine|Dawn's Pokédex|Piloswine, the Swine Pokémon and the evolved form of {{p|Swinub}}. Piloswine's entire body is covered with fur which makes it hard to see, so it uses its nose to sense its environment instead.}}<br />

<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
Piloswine appeared in {{PAV|9}} under the control of [[Keane]], who used its sheer power to devastate [[Ecruteak City]] with an {{m|Earthquake}}. However, {{adv|Silver}} defeated it easily with {{adv|Gold}}'s [[Poltaro|Politoed]].<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Prior to Generation IV, Piloswine can learn {{m|AncientPower}} by {{pkmn|breeding}} or by evolution of a [[Shadow Pokémon|Shadow]] {{p|Swinub}} caught in {{Pokémon XD}}. Despite this, it cannot evolve into {{p|Mamoswine}} in those generations because Mamoswine did not yet exist. This makes it and {{p|Lickitung}} the only Pokémon which could not evolve even if the criteria were met because their evolved forms were not yet created.<br />
* Of all the [[Methods of evolution#Knowing a certain move|Pokémon that need to know a certain move to evolve]], Piloswine is the only one that has already evolved once.<br />
** It is also the only one of the move-based evolutions that does not learn the required move at a specific level. However, AncientPower is in Piloswine's list of level up moves and thus can be recovered by [[Pastoria City]]'s [[move relearner]] in exchange for a [[Heart Scale]].<br />
*Pryce's Piloswine was defeated by {{AP|Pikachu}} with several {{m|Thunderbolt}}s with great effect, despite Piloswine being a {{type|Ground}}.<br />
*The first syllable in Piloswine's name is pronounced with a short &quot;i&quot; by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its name origin, it is pronounced with a long &quot;i&quot; in the [[Pokémon anime |anime]].<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Piloswine's size/appearance seem to be based off a mix of a {{wp|yak}}, whose mountainous habitat echoes that of the [[Ice Path]] in Northern Johto, and a {{wp|boar}}. It also share traits with Mastodons/Mammoths the latter of which is expressed in its later evolution.&lt;!--It should be noted that Mammoths were grazers, while Mastodons were browsers, a behavior similar to that talked about in most of Piloswine's Generation III Pokédex entries.--&gt;<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
A combination of ''pilose'', meaning &quot;covered in distinct hairs&quot;, and ''swine'' (pig). Pilo may also come from the {{wp|Pliocene}} period, which is the period the arctic ice cap formed.<br />
<br />
Its Japanese name may be a combination of 猪 ''inoshishi'', boar, and ブーブー ''bū bū'', an {{wp|onomatopoeia}} for oinking.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Keifel - From ''Keiler'' (boar) and ''Fell'' (fur). Possibly also from ''keifen'' (to nag or shriek).<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Cochignon - From ''cochon'' (pig) and ''chignon'' (hair bun).<br />

'''Khoury''' (Japanese: '''カズナリ''' ''Kazunari'') is a {{pkmn|Trainer}} from [[Johto]] as well as a friend of {{an|Lyra}}'s. They both debuted in ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]''.<br />
<br />
Khoury traveled to [[Sinnoh]] with Lyra and his father where they all took part in the [[Johto Festival]]. He wanted to visit Sinnoh so that he could observe and hopefully catch the native Pokémon. He was also interested in learning about [[Pokémon breeding]] and asked if [[Brock]] would mentor him.<br />
<br />
Khoury tends to panic very easily but is always very excited to meet a new Pokémon. In ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]'', after encountering a wild {{p|Gible}}, Khoury became determined to capture it, which he eventually did after a closely-fought competition with {{Ash}} who had the same goal. <br />
<br />
In [[DP147]], he had a [[tag battle]] with {{an|Lyra}} against {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}}. Despite his Totodile evolving into {{p|Croconaw}} during the match, he and Lyra eventually lost. At the end, Khoury, his father, and Lyra left on a blimp headed to [[Johto]] and said their good-byes. Khoury had also agreed to become Lyra's traveling buddy, upon her request.<br />

However, [[Brock]] crushes some berries and sprinkles it on the food, cheering Totodile up as it eagerly ate the food.<br />
<br />
[[DP145|Later]], Totodile was used to used to help track down a wild {{p|Gible}} that was attacking people near a [[Pokémon Center]]. After getting into a scuffle with {{AP|Buizel}}, Khoury was eventually able to track it down and Totodile was able to match moves with Gible, wearing it down allowing Khoury to capture it.<br />
<br />
In [[DP147]], Totodile was used in the tag battle alongside Lyra's {{p|Chikorita}} against [[Ash's Monferno]] and {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Dawn|Cyndaquil}}. In the heat of battle, Totodile evolved into a Croconaw. Despite the type-advantage it had over its opponents, Croconaw was unable to stand up to Monferno's {{m|Mach Punch}} and was defeated.<br />

After a battle between the Pokémon, Gible was eventually worn down and captured by Khoury. Afterwards, Gible was seen happily eating with the other Pokémon.<br />

<br />
:::All possibilities are being assumed, given how the theme of the episode is a fever. We don't know how bad the fever is. The fever could be minor, Pachirisu recovers within the episode, and it stays on the team. The fever could be moderate, Pachirisu has to be left with the doctors, it's off the team for at least a time. It's even possible that the fever could be highly major and not even the doctors can help Pachirisu, leaving no choice but to let it die. From what we know of the following episode, it's entirely possible Dawn could have to overcome a heavy heart following a Pokémon death in order to win that contest.<br />

:::Sure, the odds and the trends both point against the possibility of death, but there's not enough evidence to outright eliminate the possibility.

== End the gender dispute? ==<br />
<br />
I know the games and anime are definitely not related, but just use logic here. The only evidence we have for Pachirisu's gender is its head stripe. The point about it appearing as a cheerleader in [[DP061]] can't really be used, as Piplup (supposedly male in the dub) was also in the outfit.<br />
<br />
Well, that's just my opinion... '''[[User:Beta Zero|β]]'''&lt;sub&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#BBBBBB&quot;&gt;''eta Zer''&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/sub&gt;'''[[User talk:Beta Zero|Ø]]''' 05:17, 19 February 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Yes, we know Pachirisu's head stripe is the strongest evidence, similar to how [[Ash's Staravia]]'s forehead points to it being male. However, there's a sentence in Staravia's trivia reading &quot;However, the pattern does change shape occasionally in some scenes, therefore it cannot be properly determined.&quot; This sentence easily applies to Dawn's Pachirisu as well, word for word. Keep in mind that Staravia's still being debated despite its forehead evidence pretty much being reaffirmed in [[DP103]]. If that decoy &quot;female&quot; Staravia doll in DP103 didn't stop the Staravia gender debate, I don't think the Pachirisu gender debate'll be stopping anytime soon (we'll probably need verbal confirmation)...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 06:04, 19 February 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Meh, good point. I definitely don't follow details in the anime as closely as I probably should, so I guess I missed that thing about Staravia. Either way, you're right - nothing can be confirmed until it has been confirmed. (Wait what...?)

Listen, I'm not trying to restart the gender debate, but there was some male evidence in [[DP138]]... [[User:Torngentleman2|MAMOSWINEPwnz! (Torngentleman2)]] 18:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Not really. There's no telling which Attract worked on who. It could have been Johanna's male Umbreon attracting Dawn's female Pachirisu. All we know is that Piplup is male, and either Glameow or Umbreon are female. Nothing can be said about Pachirisu. --[[Tracey Sketchit|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#33CC66;&quot;&gt;'''ケンジ'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#6600CC;&quot;&gt;'''の'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF00CC;&quot;&gt;'''ガール'''&lt;/span&gt;]] 05:23, 18 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but has anyone taken into account gender ratios? or who was fighting who during the battle between Johanna and Dawn?<br />
<br />
:: Now its true Eevee, as well as all its evolved forms have a gender ratio that leans heavy towards male: '''87.5% male;12.5% female.''' On the other side Glameow have a gender ratio that leans towards female: '''25% male;75% female.''' Now obviously one of them had to be female to attract Piplup.<br />
<br />
:: If you take into account that Piplup is confirmed male, Pachirisu's stripe leans towards it being that of a male, and that Glameow has a gender ratio favoring females, it is extremely likely Glameow is a female.<br />
<br />
:: The thing is, during the battle, Dawn's Piplup was opposite of Glameow and Piplup opposite of Umbreon. Also if you look at the episode, during the double attract a flurry of gold hearts emitted from the two, but out of them all two large individual ones came out and struck Pachirisu and Piplup. Watching these two large hearts, neither crisscrossed. If anything, Umbreon's Attract heart swerved a little right towards Piplup who it was facing at the time, and during most of the battle. Right after Dawn's Pokémon were inflicted with Attract, Glameow hit Pachirisu with Swift, and Umbreon did the same to Piplup. <br />

== Pacharisu Using Attract ==<br />
<br />
In its debut episode, Pacharisu made a kissing expression, with a heart floating out of its mouth. The heart landed on Piplup, whose eyes became little hearts. This is definitely an &quot;Attract&quot; move, and could it also prove that Pacharisu is a female?--[[User:Skulblaka Shurtugal|Skulblaka Shurtugal]] 17:33, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I don't know, that could be a representation of {{m|Sweet Kiss}}, a move with a gender-inspecific effect. In fact, the Sweet Kiss page heavily implies that the move was in fact Sweet Kiss.<br />
<br />
:Besides, if people used this as evidence pointing toward Pachirisu being female, that would create conflicting gender evidence, since the length of its head stripe heavily implies that Pachirisu's male...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

:::All possibilities are being assumed, given how the theme of the episode is a fever. We don't know how bad the fever is. The fever could be minor, Pachirisu recovers within the episode, and it stays on the team. The fever could be moderate, Pachirisu has to be left with the doctors, it's off the team for at least a time. It's even possible that the fever could be highly major and not even the doctors can help Pachirisu, leaving no choice but to let it die. From what we know of the following episode, it's entirely possible Dawn could have to overcome a heavy heart following a Pokémon death in order to win that contest.<br />
<br />
:::Sure, the odds and the trends both point against the possibility of death, but there's not enough evidence to outright eliminate the possibility.

== End the gender dispute? ==<br />
<br />
I know the games and anime are definitely not related, but just use logic here. The only evidence we have for Pachirisu's gender is its head stripe. The point about it appearing as a cheerleader in [[DP061]] can't really be used, as Piplup (supposedly male in the dub) was also in the outfit.<br />
<br />
Well, that's just my opinion... '''[[User:Beta Zero|β]]'''&lt;sub&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#BBBBBB&quot;&gt;''eta Zer''&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/sub&gt;'''[[User talk:Beta Zero|Ø]]''' 05:17, 19 February 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Yes, we know Pachirisu's head stripe is the strongest evidence, similar to how [[Ash's Staravia]]'s forehead points to it being male. However, there's a sentence in Staravia's trivia reading &quot;However, the pattern does change shape occasionally in some scenes, therefore it cannot be properly determined.&quot; This sentence easily applies to Dawn's Pachirisu as well, word for word. Keep in mind that Staravia's still being debated despite its forehead evidence pretty much being reaffirmed in [[DP103]]. If that decoy &quot;female&quot; Staravia doll in DP103 didn't stop the Staravia gender debate, I don't think the Pachirisu gender debate'll be stopping anytime soon (we'll probably need verbal confirmation)...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 06:04, 19 February 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Meh, good point. I definitely don't follow details in the anime as closely as I probably should, so I guess I missed that thing about Staravia. Either way, you're right - nothing can be confirmed until it has been confirmed. (Wait what...?)

Listen, I'm not trying to restart the gender debate, but there was some male evidence in [[DP138]]... [[User:Torngentleman2|MAMOSWINEPwnz! (Torngentleman2)]] 18:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Not really. There's no telling which Attract worked on who. It could have been Johanna's male Umbreon attracting Dawn's female Pachirisu. All we know is that Piplup is male, and either Glameow or Umbreon are female. Nothing can be said about Pachirisu. --[[Tracey Sketchit|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#33CC66;&quot;&gt;'''ケンジ'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#6600CC;&quot;&gt;'''の'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF00CC;&quot;&gt;'''ガール'''&lt;/span&gt;]] 05:23, 18 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but has anyone taken into account gender ratios? or who was fighting who during the battle between Johanna and Dawn?<br />
<br />
:: Now its true Eevee, as well as all its evolved forms have a gender ratio that leans heavy towards male: '''87.5% male;12.5% female.''' On the other side Glameow have a gender ratio that leans towards female: '''25% male;75% female.''' Now obviously one of them had to be female to attract Piplup.<br />
<br />
:: If you take into account that Piplup is confirmed male, Pachirisu's stripe leans towards it being that of a male, and that Glameow has a gender ratio favoring females, it is extremely likely Glameow is a female.<br />
<br />
:: The thing is, during the battle, Dawn's Piplup was opposite of Glameow and Piplup opposite of Umbreon. Also if you look at the episode, during the double attract a flurry of gold hearts emitted from the two, but out of them all two large individual ones came out and struck Pachirisu and Piplup. Watching these two large hearts, neither crisscrossed. If anything, Umbreon's Attract heart swerved a little right towards Piplup who it was facing at the time, and during most of the battle. Right after Dawn's Pokémon were inflicted with Attract, Glameow hit Pachirisu with Swift, and Umbreon did the same to Piplup. <br />

== Pacharisu Using Attract ==<br />
<br />
In its debut episode, Pacharisu made a kissing expression, with a heart floating out of its mouth. The heart landed on Piplup, whose eyes became little hearts. This is definitely an &quot;Attract&quot; move, and could it also prove that Pacharisu is a female?--[[User:Skulblaka Shurtugal|Skulblaka Shurtugal]] 17:33, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I don't know, that could be a representation of {{m|Sweet Kiss}}, a move with a gender-inspecific effect. In fact, the Sweet Kiss page heavily implies that the move was in fact Sweet Kiss.<br />
<br />
:Besides, if people used this as evidence pointing toward Pachirisu being female, that would create conflicting gender evidence, since the length of its head stripe heavily implies that Pachirisu's male...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

Look, I tried to insert it in because it's fact that he's getting one. If it was just people talking on the forum, then I could let it stay off. However, we have had a Yahoo Japanese Shopping Catalogue AND Amazon.com explicitly refer to a Gible Toy that's being released as being &quot;Ash's Gible&quot;.

== Regarding the section about Ash as a character ==<br />
Much of it is convoluted and poorly constructed. The problem appears to be that new contributions are not seamlessly integrated with those already in place, resulting in a lack of observable rhyme or reason. This hinders the flow of the writing, making the entire segment sub-par.<br />
<br />
Bulbapedia has standards for a reason, and it is to avoid something like this happening as the result of numerous individuals contributing to one article. As it stands, I feel the entire section should be cleaned up and revised. [[User:Vipera|Vipera]] 21:16, 3 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Telepathic side of Aura and Pikachu ==<br />
<br />
I was thinking, is it possible that Ash was using Latent Aura powers to understand Pikachu? I know it wasn't invented till gen 4, but it's something to mention as a possibility. --[[User:Jono R|Jono R]] 22:50, 8 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

<br />
== Azelf ==<br />
<br />
I think Azelf should be added, because not only was it legendary. But also because Ash commanded it and he actually had a telepathic bond to it. Aside from Riolu how often does that happen? --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 22:59, 12 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Didn't do it for Riolu, why do it for Azelf? --[[Tracey Sketchit|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#33CC66;&quot;&gt;'''ケンジ'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#6600CC;&quot;&gt;'''の'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User:Kenji-girl|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF00CC;&quot;&gt;'''ガール'''&lt;/span&gt;]] 23:01, 12 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:: I'm going to say that it's because Azelf had more of a story than Riolu. This whole Pixie storyline began with Dawn and Mesprit. Which culminated to DP151 and DP152. Where we have Ash, Brock, and Dawn being telepathically connected to the pixies. Ash, Brock, and Dawn could feel when something bad happened to them. And when the pixies were in real trouble, the human trio teleported to them from Cynthia's Jeep right in the middle of Team Galactic's headquarters. Then when Ash, Brock, and Dawn saved them from the red crystal/chain the pixies allowed them to order them commands. Besides how are Raichu, Spoink, and Mantyke more notable? Raichu only got an episode while Spoink and Mantyke got very little screen time. How they are more notable then Riolu or Azelf is beyond me. --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 02:25, 13 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::My two cents: I think Ash's connection with Azelf is totally important, and I was very nearly about to side with you, but after thinking about it I figured that if Azelf were to be added, it would have to be in a &quot;befriended&quot; section. And if we gave Ash a &quot;befriended&quot; section, then we'd have to list ALL the Pokemon he befriended, and I think that alone could very well crash the server. (An exaggeration, but you get the point.) But their connection should still be mentioned - and I think it's possibly even important enough to be given its own paragraph in the &quot;character&quot; section, instead of just being added on to the paragraph about his connection with legendary Pokemon. I say this because there was buildup to this over the course of DP, and is thus monumental enough to have quite a bit said about it. The same goes for Dawn and Brock, and their respective pixies. &lt;span style=&quot;border: 2px dotted #FFBBDD;&quot;&gt;[[User:Umeko|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF99CC;&quot;&gt;梅子&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:Umeko|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF99CC;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;❀&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF99CC;&quot;&gt;&lt;sub&gt;✿&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/span&gt; 02:47, 13 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Ash's Legendary Friends ==<br />
I couldn't find any edit button on Ash's page and I couldn't figure out how to contact the mods of this site, so I brought my question here; please let me know if this is not the place or if this is not how to get information. <br />
<br />
I was reading Ash's page when I came suddenly to Ash's Legendary friends, it claims he has a close connection with Ho-Oh, Lugia, Latias, Azelf, Shaymin and Giratina. Where is Mewtwo? The two had a rough start but Ash also has a close connection to Mewtwo. Afterall, It was Ash who softened Mewtwo in the first movie and in the Pokemon Special: Mewtwo's Return, Mewtwo calls Ash and &quot;Unique human, one of a kind.&quot; and they part by saying how they'll always remember each other. Mewtwo is also able to contact Ash even over long distances. I think Mewtwo should be added to that list of Ash's legendary friends. {{unsigned|Artbender}}<br />
:Ash's page is currently protected due to upcoming anime things. Mewtwo's kinda... I dunno. I suppose you could say that he and Ash have a friendship, but as for any ability to contact Ash? Um. Wha? '''[[User:TTEchidna|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#80964B&quot;&gt;''TTE''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:TTEchidna|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#C4E673&quot;&gt;chidna&lt;/span&gt;]]''' 10:34, 29 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
::I think he's talking about when Ash heard Mewtwo's voice at the end of Mewtwo Returns. Mewtwo may have just been hiding in the city somewhere, so who knows exactly how far away they were, but I recall reading somewhere on Bulbapedia that the city they then show Mewtwo watching over/hiding in resembles New York City, so it could be assumed that he was far away. But even if that part is left out, I'd definitely include Mewtwo as one of Ash's legendary friends. --[[User:Jared|Ja]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:#FF0000; background:#FF0000&quot;&gt;[[User talk:Jared|red]]&lt;/span&gt; 22:35, 29 January 2010 (UTC)<br />

== Identifying Genders ==<br />
<br />
I was wondering if it would be a good idea to identify a Pokémon's gender (when confirmed) for a main character in the new link boxes. For example:<br />
<br />
{| align=&quot;center&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot;<br />
|-<br />
| {{ActivePoké|Ash|Pikachu|Ash Pikachu HD.png|electric}} ♂<br />
| {{ActivePoké|Ash|Buizel|Ash Buizel.png|water}} ♂<br />
| {{ActivePoké|Ash|Gible|Ash Gible.png|dragon|ground}} ♂<br />
|-<br />
| {{InactivePoké|Ash|Bulbasaur|Ash Bulbasaur.png|grass|poison}} ♂<br />
| {{InactivePoké|Ash|Bayleef|Ash's Bayleef.png|grass|fir=Chikorita}} ♀<br />
| {{InactivePoké|Dawn|Ambipom|AshAipom.png|normal|disp=Aipom}} ♀<br />
|}<br />
<br />
Just this is the way it's displayed for the manga characters, so we might as well implement it for the anime characters as well. What does everyone think? [[User:Watchermark|Watchermark]] 12:56, 4 February 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:The problem is that most Pokémon in the anime don't have confirmed genders. Only.... 25% maybe. Give or take a few.

== Obsolete trivia ==<br />
<br />
Could someone remove this?<br />
The three Fire-type starter Pokémon Ash owns are each at a different evolutionary stage. Cyndaquil is in its first, Monferno its second, and Charizard its third.<br />
Monferno evolved in the latest episode, so it's no longer true.<br />
Also, if that was worthy of being mentioned, then perhaps it should be mentioned that Kingler is the only water-type Pokémon he's evolved so far.<br />

:It should at least be changed to something more trivial and up to date. Like how Ash has never evolved a Water-type Starter to its final form, but has evolved one grass type and two fire types.<br />

'''Wobbuffet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソーナンス''' ''Sonans'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wynaut}} starting at [[level]] 15.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Wobbuffet is a tall, cyan-colored blob-like creature with a black tail that has two eye-spots on it. Wobbuffet has flipper-like arms and a crooked expression on its face as a opposed to the perpetual smile that {{p|Wynaut|its un-evolved form}} has. It also walks on four legs at its base.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Female Wobbuffet appear to be wearing lipstick.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities==== <br />
Wobbuffet is only capable of {{m|counter}}ing enemy attacks. However, it is highly effective at doing this due to its high endurance. It also has the curious ability to {{a|Shadow Tag|keep its opponent from retreating}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
When two Wobbuffet meet, they usually try to test each others' endurance. Even though Wobbuffet are classified as &quot;Patient&quot; Pokémon, a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who has it often finds that his or her Wobbuffet tends to pop out of its [[Poké Ball]] by itself, shouting out in agreement of something someone said.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]<br />
Wobbuffet live in dark caves to keep their tail hidden.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Wobbuffet initial appearance.png|right|thumb|Wobbuffet's first appearance]]<br />
===Major appearances===<br />
====[[Jessie's Wobbuffet]]====<br />
[[Jessie]] has a Wobbuffet that frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to shout its name or cause what Jessie considers to be trouble. It has appeared in almost every episode since she accidentally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for it in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. However, she rarely uses Wobbuffet in battle.<br />
<br />
====Other====<br />
''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a town in which everyone owned a Wobbuffet.<br />
<br />
===Minor appearances===<br />
<br />
===Pokédex entries===<br />
{{Animedexheader|Johto}}<br />
{{Animedexbody|EP146|Wobbuffet|Ash's Pokédex|Wobbuffet, the Patient Pokémon. Wobbuffet like to live in dark areas so they can keep their pitch black tail concealed.}}<br />
{{Animedexbody|EP146|Wobbuffet|James's Book|Wobbuffet, the Patient Pokémon. Is unable to initiate attacks.}}<br />
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
Wobbuffet first appeared in {{PAV|11}} under the ownership of {{adv|Crystal}}'s mother.<br />
<br />
==In the TCG==<br />
{{main|Wobbuffet (TCG)}}<br />
<br />
==Other appearances==<br />
[[Image:Wobbuffet Brawl.jpg|thumb|right|Wobbuffet in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]<br />
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===<br />
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Wobbuffet will stand on the stage in one place. Anyone attacking or running into it will be damaged by its {{m|Counter}}, apart from the player who threw the Poké Ball, who will only be knocked back.<br />
<br />
Wobbuffet is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]] in Melee. It appears on its side and never fully reveals itself. When it first appears, it will quickly return off-screen but will then come back and remain to allow for fighting to take place on top of it.<br />
<br />
====Melee trophy information====<br />
A Patient Pokémon, Wobbuffet lives in darkness to hide its mismatched black tail. Even for a stoic Pokémon, this creature is a testament to self-control; it will not actively attack an opponent. Its {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}} moves are solely used for reflecting attacks directly back at its antagonist.<br />
<br />
==Game data==<br />
===NPC appearances===<br />
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]: Wobbuffet and {{p|Wynaut}} send the {{player}} on a mission into the [[Uproar Forest]]. As thanks for completing it, they help to remodel the rescue base. Notably, the Wobbuffet is the only Pokémon in the entire game that doesn't speak human language. This may be an oversight by the translators, since in Explorers of Sky (as mentioned below) he does not speak this way.<br />
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]]: Wobbuffet once again joins Wynaut, only this time, they're running a shop in the Spinda Cafe, called the Recycle Shop. Unlike the first game, it no longer says its name, and instead says &quot;That's right!&quot;<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Its Japanese name, when paired with the Japanese name of its pre-evolution, {{p|Wynaut}}, ソーナノ ''Sohnano'', makes for a potential perpetual conversation of &quot;that's the way it is&quot; followed by &quot;really?&quot;, and so on, as seen in ''[[PK12|Camp Pikachu]]''.<br />
* Wobbuffet has the third highest base {{stat|HP}} stat in the {{pkmn|games}}, after {{p|Blissey}} and {{p|Chansey}}.<br />
** It also has the highest base HP of all {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, the only stat among the Pokémon of this type that is not dominated by a Forme of {{p|Deoxys}}.<br />
* Wobbuffet is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.<br />
* It is one of five evolution families to learn both {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}. The others are {{p|Deoxys}} in Defense Forme (via [[level|leveling up]]), {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Mudkip}} (both via {{pkmn|breeding}}), and {{p|Squirtle}} (via breeding and [[move tutor|move tutoring]] in {{game|Emerald}}).<br />
* If the opponent does not attack Wobbuffet, Wobbuffet cannot harm the opponent except with {{m|Struggle}} (itself unusable unless Wobbuffet has run out of moves).<br />
* In the anime it has been claimed that Wobbuffet can only learn Counter, which later was reconed to be Counter and Mirror Coat. This is unlike its game incarnation, which can learn Destiny Bond and Safe Guard.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
It may be based on the late Japanese comedian 林家三平 ''{{wp|Sanpei Hayashiya}}'', who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, そうなんす、奥さん ''sō nansu, okusan'', &quot;That's the way it is, ma'am.&quot;<br />
<br />
In addition, its form and available moves may be based on a {{wp|punching bag}}; that is, when it is hit, it bounces back. It may also be based on Inky from the Pac-Man series.<br />
<br />
Alternitively, it may be based on the concept of {{wp|Karma}} as it can only cause damage if it is attacked first.<br />
It bears a somewhat similar body shape to a Buzz Blob from the ''Legend of Zelda'' series. It also reacts to damage like a Buzz Blob, countering it towards the attacker.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Wobbuffet's name is a combination of ''buffet'', as in to strike repeatedly, and ''wobble'', both references to its punching-bag shape.<br />
<br />
Its Japanese name is homophonous with the interjection そうなんす ''sō na-n-su'', which roughly means &quot;that's the way it is.&quot; Its Japanese name is played off of by its pre-evolution, Wynaut, whose Japanese name of ソーナノ is nearly homophonous with the phrase &quot;そうなの&quot;, meaning &quot;really?&quot;. Other languages' names for the Pokémon in this family, due to the fact that they were introduced in different generations, do not feature this pun.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Woingenau - Corrupted version of ''&quot;Wohin genau?&quot;'' (&quot;Where to, exactly?&quot;).<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Qulbutoke - A play on ''Culbuto'' (the French trademarked name for {{wp|Weeble}}s) and the expression ''OK''.<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 마자용 ''Majayong'' - A play on ''Majayo'', which means &quot;That's correct/That's right&quot;.<br />

[[Image:Dawncheer.jpg|thumb|Dawn in the cheerleading outfit she wore to cheer for Ash]]<br />
'''PearlShipping''' (Japanese: '''サトヒカ''' ''SatoHika'') is the name of the pairing between [[Ash Ketchum]] and his newest traveling {{ashfr|companion}}, {{an|Dawn}}, from the [[Pokémon anime]]. This [[shipping|Ship]] is among the more popular anime-based Shippings, along with {{s|PokéShipping}}, {{s|AdvanceShipping}}, and {{s|ContestShipping}}. The name itself was coined from the belief Dawn's [[Dawn (game)|game persona]] would be linked to the {{ga|Barry|Pearl}} name upon {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}'s release, as was the case for {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, before much was known of either the anime saga or Dawn's character.<br />
<br />
==Anime evidence==<br />
===Dawn's hints===<br />
* ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]''<br />
: Dawn feels Ash does not respect or acknowledge her, and both argue with each other throughout most of the episode. She challenges [[Nando]] to a battle, hoping to make Ash realize how good she is as a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. In the end, after Nando manages to explain to them that there is no reason to argue, both apologize to one another and exchange a few very sentimental words, strengthening their new friendship.<br />
* ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary!]]''<br />
: Dawn is having a bad hair day and has her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} fix her hair. Before fixing her hair, she refuses to let Ash see her for fear of having him judge her, or that she is simply being self-conscious. Afterward, she asks Ash if he would like his done, too.<br />
* ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]''<br />
: Dawn comments on how awesome Ash looks when making his appeal in the {{ci|Jubilife}} Contest.<br />
* ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''<br />
: Dawn dons a cheerleading outfit, and she and her Pokémon began cheering and dancing for Ash to win and thus giving him the confidence to earn his first [[Badge|gym badge]] in Sinnoh. Neither [[Misty]] nor {{an|May}} ever went to such lengths in any of Ash's battles; they usually sat on the side lines discussing if he would win, though they did plain-out cheer for him.<br />
* ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]''<br />
: When [[Gardenia]] suggests to do a tag battle, Dawn quickly said she wanted to be Ash's partner.<br />
* ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''<br />
: Dawn sees Ash going off to train his Pokemon and follows for reasons unknown. In a later scene Dawn is inspired by Ash's training to do the same, but then starts crying about her recent Contest failure. When Ash approached her, she didn't want him to worry about it and played along with his assumption that she had dirt in her eyes. Then Ash says he is hungry and Dawn suggests that they get ice cream so that Ash wouldn't have to worry about her.<br />
* ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''<br />
: Dawn talks to [[Maylene]] to try to convince her to take up Gym Leading again. Perhaps she does this because she can relate to it with her contest failures, but near the end of the conversation she admits she wonders if her Contests are holding Ash back, showing that she cares about his dreams almost more than her own.<br />
&lt;!--* ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''<br />
: When Brock asks Dawn what Pokemon she would use, she told him {{OP|Dawn|Ambipom}} because of the experience from Ash. Later in another scene, Dawn exclaimes, &quot;Wow, Ash is really something!&quot; (Context is needed for both claims. Do no release without the context.)--&gt;<br />
* [[DP069|''Enter Galactic!'']]<br />
: Ash claims the reason he won his new badge from [[Maylene]] was because of all the training Dawn did with {{AP|Buizel}} when it was still hers. This causes Dawn to blush and she says, &quot;Thanks, but it was all worth it to see an amazing battle between you and Maylene, Ash.&quot;<br />
* ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]''<br />
: At the start of the episode, Dawn comments on how Ash does very well in training his Pokémon and even saying: &quot;Ash is incredible!&quot; Also, when Contest Master [[Wallace]] mentions the importance of the love between the Trainers and their Pokémon, Dawn agrees and lookes at Ash, as if she just realized something that involves Ash. Ash looks back at Dawn and stares at her in confusion.<br />
* ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]''<br />
: Dawn is proud of Ash because he and Buizel were able to pull off the {{m|Aqua Jet}}-{{m|Ice Beam}} combo that Dawn attempted to perform with Buizel in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'', turning the opponent's {{m|Ice Beam}} against it.<br />
* ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''<br />
: When Ash runs into [[Crasher Wake]] and falls to the ground, Dawn is concerned over Ash's well-being. In another scene, Dawn is so frightened by the appearance of the Croagunk, she hid behind Ash and held onto him.<br />
* ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]''<br />
: Dawn becomes worried that Ash's plan to get past the {{p|Psyduck}} would fail and that Ash would end up hurt.<br />
* ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]''<br />
: When Brock finishes packing, and tells Dawn that they're ready to go, she immediately volunteers to go and get Ash. Also, after that, Brock is seen with Happiny, saying that they'd be better off waiting around in the Pokémon Center until Ash and Dawn are done training.<br />
* ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]''<br />
: When Byron's Gym assistant says that [[Byron]] has the upper hand during Ash's gym battle, Dawn gets angry and says, &quot;I am telling you you're wrong! Ash is going to win it for sure!&quot; showing the confidence she has that he will win.<br />
* ''[[DP113|Hold The Phione!]]''<br />
: When Ash asks Dawn what Pokémon she would be using in the upcoming Pokémon Contest, Dawn winks at him and says, &quot;Well who do you ''think'' I would use?&quot;<br />
* ''[[DP123|Old Rivals, New Tricks!]]''<br />
: Dawn stated that she wanted to enter {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} in the {{to|Sandalstraw}} Contest so it could win it for both her and Ash.<br />
*''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''<br />
: When Ash is feeling upset when all his Pokémon are badly injured he runs off, and Dawn tries to follow him, but is stopped by Brock. So in order to cheer up Ash after his confidence goes down, Dawn puts on a show for him. Ash didn't know why Dawn was doing the show at first, but Nurse Joy whispered to him that she was doing it to make him and his Pokémon feel better.<br />
*''[[DP144|Gone With the Windworks!]]''<br />
: When Ash, Dawn, Brock, [[Khoury]], and {{an|Lyra}} are trapped in a room at the [[Valley Windworks]], Lyra asks Dawn if Ash is her boyfriend. She quickly denies it, bewildered at the question. Lyra goes on, while trapped, about Ash's apparent strong points, putting Ash in a light Dawn likely hadn't seen before.<br />
<br />
===Ash's hints===<br />
* ''[[DP018|O'er The Rampardos We Watched]]''<br />
: Dawn is dressed in a cheerleading outfit to cheer Ash on. When she starts cheering with her Pokémon, Ash notices this and said, &quot;Geez, thanks Dawn.&quot; As he said this, he had a big grin on his face.<br />
* ''[[DP027|Settling a Not-So-Old Score!]]''<br />
: Ash calms her nerves after she had made what she thought was a bad appeal, and even used her frequent catchphrase, &quot;''No need to worry!''&quot; (Japanese: &quot;''Daijōbu!''&quot;) to console her and gave her a caring and loving look.<br />
* ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]''<br />
: Ash signs Dawn up in the {{ci|Hearthome}} [[Tag Battle Tournament]] to cheer her up after her recent Contest loss. When he tells her, she is against it because she thought she wouldn't do well, but Ash claims he thinks she would do great. He also tells her to try her best. When she agrees, he raises his hand with a big grin on his face to give her a high five.<br />
* ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]''<br />
: Ash is deeply saddened when Dawn lost in the appeal round for the second time. After the loss, &quot;[[Jessie|Jessalina]]&quot; walks up to her and tells her to leave. Dawn tells &quot;Jessalina&quot; she wants to stay. The camera then turns to her slightly shaking fist. The camera then shoots over to Ash's face. The brown in his eyes can be seen, and this usually only happens when Ash is very upset. He then lowers his head, and hides his eyes behind his hat.<br />
* ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]''<br />
: Ash said the reason he won his new badge from [[Maylene]] was because of all the training Dawn did with {{AP|Buizel}} when it was still hers. This caused Dawn to blush and she said, &quot;Thanks, but it was all worth it to see an amazing battle between you and Maylene, Ash.&quot; This made Ash smile widely at her.<br />
* ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''<br />
: During the Croagunk Festival, Ash asks Dawn to dance.<br />
* ''[[DP084|Hungry for the Good Life!]]''<br />
: When Ash and Dawn climb onto Team Rocket's [[Team Rocket's mechas|robot]], he falls off and screams her name twice, once while he fell and again when he lost sight of her.<br />
* ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''<br />
: Dawn makes a comment about how Ash should treat his Pokémon like {{Gary}} does and Ash becomes furious. Some PearlShippers consider that to be jealousy of Dawn's supposed feelings for Gary.<br />
* ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]''<br />
: When Dawn becomes frustrated with designing her outfits for the collection, Ash comments on how all her designs are amazing and she should do her best. <br />
* ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''<br />
: When Brock comments on how great [[Conway]] is with his {{p|Venonat}}, Ash begins to get worried and yells, &quot;'Kay Dawn, hang in there!&quot; Later, Ash was extremely happy that Dawn won the prize for being closest to her [[Pokémon]].<br />
* ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]''<br />
: Ash saves Dawn by putting his arm around her waist and pushing her to safety, protecting her from her {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine}} after it went charging at her for more Poffins.<br />
* ''[[DP114|Another One Gabites the Dust!]]''<br />
: When [[Ursula]] insults Dawn, Dawn becomes mad but as soon as she is about to say something to Ursula as she leaves, Ash yells at her telling her that Dawn is a much better Coordinator and Trainer then she is.<br />
* ''[[DP119|Trials and Adulations!]]''<br />
: As soon as Ash found out that Dawn fell in the river, he became extremely worried about her and continued to be concerned about her until he found Dawn again. Meanwhile, [[Brock]] didn't show nearly as much concern as Ash did.<br />
* ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''<br />
: When Dawn puts on a show for Ash and his Pokémon, Ash does not know why, so Nurse Joy tells him that it is to cheer up him and all his Pokémon. When she tells him this, he gives Dawn a weird look as if to say, &quot;Is this true?&quot; Dawn gives him a smile and a wink, saying yes and starts the show. As the show progresses, Ash and his Pokémon are enjoying themselves very much.<br />
* ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]''<br />
: When Lyra invites Dawn up for a battle with her Chikorita, Ash yells, &quot;Yeah, go Dawn!&quot; and pushes her by the shoulder up on the podium.<br />
<br />
===Other hints===<br />
[[Image:HighfiveDP.JPG|thumb|right|180px|Ash and Dawn high-fiving]]<br />
* Ash and Dawn are often seen exchanging high fives whenever one of them accomplishes something, which might possibly portray a deep friendship, as Ash has rarely ever given a high five to anyone else on the show.<br />
*[[Dawn's Buneary]] has {{s|LagomorphShipping|a crush}} on [[Ash's Pikachu]]. This could be a sign that Dawn may have a crush on Ash, since [[Professor Oak]] and [[Brock]] have said in the past that Pokémon represent the feelings of their masters and when two Pokémon fall in love, there is a good chance the Trainers will too. It is to be pointed out that Buneary developed this crush ''before'' Dawn caught it. The claim has also been refuted at various points during the series, so the feelings of the Pokémon are not always definitive to the feelings of the Trainers.<br />
* So far, Ash has watched all of Dawn's Contests. He did not do this with May because he would sometimes be training his Pokémon instead of watching her.<br />
* Dawn is the source of some of the moves and strategies used in battle by Ash, which include [[Ash's Buizel|Ice Aqua Jet]] &amp; [[Dawn's Piplup|Spin]]. Ash watching Dawn's Contest may (in part&lt;!--so as not to exclude their friendship--&gt;) be so he can learn new things to apply in battle.<br />
[[Image:Promo PokemonMovie11.JPG|thumb|100px|''Pikachu the Movie'' poster]]<br />
* One of the movie posters for ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' depicts Pikachu and Piplup sitting on Ash's and Dawn's heads, respectively. Some fans have pointed out that the distance portrayed between Dawn and Ash is very small. However, other fans point out how Ash's hair, which can usually be seen from the sides of his hat, is not present. This may mean the Trainers are not really wearing their hats.<br />
* A Domino's Pizza Kids 2008 Commercial in Japan features Ash and Dawn, as well as some Pokémon.<br />
* [[High Touch!]] <br />
: The opening is sung by Ash and Dawn. The lyrics show how close their friendship is to each other and their Pokémon. But, mainly to each other.<br />
* ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]''<br />
: While Dawn battled a revived {{p|Aerodactyl}}, Ash is fascinated with {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}'s new dodging tactic that he asks Dawn to help him practice for his rematch. He then has {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, and {{AP|Turtwig}} use them in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos We Watched]]'' in his rematch with [[Roark]], again in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters]]'' in his match against Kenny, and a few other times since, the tactic becoming a regular (if not frequent) feature in Ash's strategy.<br />
[[File:PearlHintDP149.png|thumb|Ash and Dawn close to each other]]<br />
* ''[[DP113|Hold the Phione!]]''<br />
: When Ash and Dawn were in the submarine, they saw a school of {{p|Luvdisc}}. Some PearlShippers consider this a hint because Luvdisc's [[Pokédex]] entry says if two people see a school of Luvdisc, they will be blessed with eternal love (however, there's been long-debated discrepancies about how much the anime and the game are relatable, and should not be taken at face value. Also, {{s|AdvanceShipping|AdvanceShippers}} have a similar hint from the [[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea|ninth movie]]).<br />
<br />
==Movie evidence==<br />
===Dawn's hints===<br />
* ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''<br />
: When {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} first appears in front of Ash and company, Dawn runs over to Ash's side. Several other scenes feature Dawn reacting to Ash's predicaments: when Ash is about to fall off the tower, Dawn rushes over to save him. When Ash saves her from falling of the platform, Dawn looks at him with a thankful expression on her face and is holding his hand. And when Ash begins to cry, believing he lost Darkrai, Dawn looks at him with a worried expression and begins to cry as well.<br />
* ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''<br />
: When Ash tries to defeat Marcus, he has trouble beating {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Bronzong}}. As soon as they both attack Pikachu, Dawn and her Piplup protect Ash and Pikachu, and help him fight. During this time, Brock is not with Dawn and Ash but with [[Sheena]] and [[Damos]].<br />
<br />
===Ash's hints===<br />
* ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''<br />
: When both Ash and Dawn are falling off the tower together, Ash holds Dawn tight so that she doesn't leave him.<br />
<br />
===Other movie hints===<br />
Movie Posters<br />
* Throughout most promotional posters of Diamond &amp; Pearl movies, Brock seemed to be excluded, leaving only Ash and Dawn in them. <br />
<br />
==Similarities==<br />
* Both Dawn and Ash saw a [[legendary Pokémon]] at the beginning of their journeys (Ash saw {{an|Ho-Oh}} in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' and Dawn saw {{p|Mesprit}} in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'').<br />
** They have both seen a [[Lake guardians|lake guardian]]: Dawn and Mesprit in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'', and Ash and {{p|Azelf}} in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' (eventually, Brock saw {{p|Uxie}} as well).<br />
* Neither of Ash or Dawn's fathers have ever been acknowledged on-screen in the anime. They also are only children with no siblings.<br />
[[Image:Pearlshipping.png|thumb|right|Scene from ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'']]<br />
* They both have childhood [[rival]]s: Ash's is [[Gary Oak]] and Dawn's is {{si|Kenny}}.<br />
* The rivals of their {{ga|Red|game}} {{ga|Dawn|counterparts}} ({{Gary}} and {{an|Barry}}) have appeared in the anime instead of making a cameo, as {{ga|Silver}} and {{ga|Brendan}} have.<br />
* He first participated in an official Contest at the same time as Dawn.<br />
* They are the only main characters that have battled members of the [[Elite Four]].<br />
* Just like Ash's Pikachu, [[Dawn's Piplup]] wasn't ready to obey her when they first met. Eventually, they became friends.<br />
** Pikachu saved Ash from {{p|Spearow}} in the beginning of his journey while Piplup saved Dawn from {{p|Ariados}}.<br />
** Both Dawn and Ash's first Pokémon have refused to evolve.<br />
** Both of their {{Pkmn2|starter}}s were able to defeat their evolved forms: {{AP|Pikachu}} beat [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} and [[Sho]]'s {{p|Raichu}}, while {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} beat {{si|Kenny}}'s {{TP|Kenny|Prinplup}}.<br />
** As of ''[[DP060|Journey To The Unown!]]'', [[Dawn's Piplup]] seems to have become an &quot;out of the ball&quot; Pokémon, as it rarely stays inside its [[Poké Ball]] anymore, and is often seen being carried around by Dawn just as Ash carries around Pikachu on his shoulder.<br />
[[Image:Dominos Ad Nov08.jpg|thumb|right|Scene from a 2008 Domino's Pizza commercial]]<br />
* Both Ash and Dawn have owned Pokémon that refused to obey them at one point (Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Charizard}}, and {{AP|Primeape}}, and Dawn's {{AP|Buizel}} and {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}).<br />
** Both also have a Pokémon they caught in its earliest form, which began to disobey them after evolving once, and then evolved again rather quickly. Eventually, both Pokémon started obeying their Trainers (however, it took [[Ash's Charizard]] longer to obey than [[Dawn's Mamoswine]]).<br />
* They both released the second Pokémon they caught: Ash released {{AP|Pidgeot}} and Dawn released {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. However, Dawn recaptured Pachirisu and Ash said he would come back for Pidgeot (though he has yet to do so).<br />
* Dawn is the only main character in the series, aside from Ash, who owns an {{t|Electric}} Pokémon. <br />
* Ash and Dawn are the only main characters to trade Pokémon with each other: Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} for Dawn's {{AP|Buizel}}.<br />
* In ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'', Pachirisu becomes ill from having too much electricity, which also happened to Ash's Pikachu between ''[[EP274|Hoenn Alone!]]'' and ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]''.<br />
* Just like [[Ash's Bulbasaur]], [[Dawn's Piplup]] stopped evolving in the middle of the evolution process.<br />
* Both own a {{p|Cyndaquil}}.<br />
* Both released a fully evolved Pokémon from their current team for training during the the ''Diamond and Pearl'' saga.<br />
** Both are part of a two-evolution family and their base forms relate to Generation II.<br />
* In ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'', Dawn rented an affectionate {{p|Grimer}} whose behavior is similar to that of [[Ash's Muk]].<br />
* Both Ash and Dawn have a parent that is their role model: Ash wants to be a Pokémon master like his dad and Dawn wants to be a top Coordinator like her mom.<br />
<br />

<div>Aren't the tags hanging from its head from a Japanese festival?<br />
<br />
The New Year's Festival, IIRC. Not sure if it has a name, but don't they place wishing tags on trees in the hopes that the wishes written on them come true? [[User:Evkl|Evkl]] 08:09, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Yeah, that's it.<br />
<br />
Excuse me, but do you mind that Jirachi's entry says that it's similiar to the Beanstar from Mario &amp; Luigi: Superstar Saga? I know the idea might be farfected, but it's a possiblity.--[[User:Pokencyclopedia|Pokencyclopedia]] 06:45, 6 September 2005 (CDT)<br />
<br />
== Dimentio? ==<br />
<br />
Would someone be kind enough to explain to me how exactly Jirachi resembles Dimentio?<br />
In look, and in action the two characters have little in common. [[User:Trainer-c|Trainer-c]] 09:01, 23 March 2008 (UTC)<br />
:The star thing, that's all. But seriously, get rid of all the similarity things. {{ani|493}}'''&lt;sc&gt;[[User:Optimus35|&lt;span class=&quot;explain&quot; title=&quot;&lt;nowiki&gt;Optimus35, to be exact...&gt;.&gt;;;;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&quot;&gt;Optimatum&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/sc&gt;&lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|♊]]&lt;/sup&gt;{{{1|09:02 23 Mar 2008}}}'''<br />
:: Dimentio is not shaped like a star... he is supposed to resemble a court jester. [[User:Trainer-c|Trainer-c]] 09:07, 23 March 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::Dimento? Please. Thats almost as bad as my idea that espeon looks like the sonic charater Blaze The Cat.[[User:Glitchym1|Glitchym1~♥]] 21:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Obtainable==<br />
Should it be noted that Jirachi is obtainable via a special Pokemon Colosseum preview disk that came with Jirachi: Wish Maker? That's how I got my jirachi, a few years back. -- [[Image:Ani157MS.gif]][[User:Bug Catcher Jam|Chris]][[Image:Ani465MS.gif]] 03:50, 9 April 2008 (UTC)<br />
:Or, to be more accurate, the [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc]]. -- [[Image:Ani157MS.gif]][[User:Bug Catcher Jam|Chris]][[Image:Ani465MS.gif]] 07:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Yeah, you get the Bonus Disc if you pre-ordered ''Colosseum''. I didn't pre-order, and I wanted a Jirachi so bad those four years ago. [[User:BlueJirachi|BlueJirachi]] 02:48, 5 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
:At the time, my then girlfriend had the disk and gave me one. Still have it, in my Diamond PC.<br />
<br />
== Grass and electric? ==<br />
<br />
Is it really nessecary to mention Jirachi can learn some Grass and Electric type moves? {{unsigned|Zephy.Changes}}<br />
: Nope.&amp;nbsp;&amp;mdash;&amp;nbsp;[[User:Laoris|Laoris]]&amp;nbsp;&lt;sub&gt;([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]])&lt;/sub&gt; 22:46, 20 January 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== excuse me ==<br />
<br />
i think there's something wrong with Jirachi's move set. Doesn't it get a STAB point from Doom Desire since it is part Steel?--[[User:Pokemongirl1|PG1 FTW!]] 12:32, 20 March 2009 (UTC)<br />
:{{m|Doom Desire}} don't receive STAB since it's typeless, much like {{m|Future Sight}}.

<br />
== HG/SS Location ==<br />
<br />
If Jirachi is only available from a bonus disk, why is HG/SS pokemon location TRADE, shouldnt it be pal park, and shouldnt the name colouring be blank, yet its coloured as though its available through catching, breeding, evolving or you recieve it... or am I wrong? --[[User:Ben7229|Ben7229]] 00:00, 1 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:&quot;Trade&quot; is the default location. We haven't quite got around to updating it yet. &amp;mdash;'''&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Verdana&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000&quot;&gt;darklord&lt;/span&gt;[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0047AB&quot;&gt;trom&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/span&gt;''' 05:39, 2 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

:Also, it isn't solely avalable via the Bonus Disc. There have been numerous Daisuki events in Japan, most notably the NZ event and more than likely one heading to the U.S. so technically it is trade as well.

== Event ==<br />
When I got my Pikachu-Colored Pichu from GameStop the guy at the counter showed me a flyer suggesting that there will be a Jiriachi download (like the Pichu) Feb. 27- March 13. Is this true? I can't find it on Bulbapedia or GameStop's website.--[[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 14:39, 6 February 2010 (UTC)<br />

== Smeargle, Jirachi Doom Desire. ==<br />

The article says Jirachi is the only Pokémon that learns Doom Desire. Does that mean Sketch can't work on it? If Sketch can work on it, then the wording in the article should be changed to imply Jirachi is the only Pokémon to learn the move through level up.

'''Jirachi''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジラーチ''' ''Jirachi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Jirachi is a small, white humanoid Pokémon. It has short, stubby limbs and prefers to float rather than walk. Its arms have flaps that give Jirachi the appearance of having long-sleeves. On its stomach is a curved seem, which conceals a third eye, its &quot;True&quot; eye. It rarely opens its third eye, which has the ability to absorb the energy it needs for hibernation. It has teal triangles on its face, under its eyes. These triangles resemble tears or clown makeup. It appears to be wearing a three point yellow/lite gold headdress, with a metallic gleam, and the resemlence of a star. On each of the points is a teal-colored tag, known as &quot;wish tags.&quot; On its back are two streamers, which flows behind it like the tail on a comet.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Jirachi is a genderless species.<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
[[Image:The Eye of Truth.png|thumb|right|250px|Jirachi's Eye of Truth]]<br />
Jirachi has the ability to grant wishes (only three in the manga) once every thousand years. It also has the ability to hibernate for extensive periods of time, and wakes up once every thousand years just as the [[Millennium Comet]] passes by. Jirachi descends from outer space in the Millennium Comet. Like {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Celebi}}, Jirachi can levitate in the air, though it doesn't have that {{a|Levitate|ability}}.<br />
<br />
Jirachi is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Doom Desire}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Jirachi spends most of its time asleep and is only awake for seven days once every 1,000 years when a voice of purity sings to it. During this time, Jirachi has the power to grant wishes. It has a child-like, playful personality. It is bossy at times, especially when others refuse to entertain it.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]<br />
In the anime, Jirachi hibernates in [[Forina]]. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Jirachi is said to live in the mountains, likely in a deep cavern. It also is known to descend from outer space in the [[Millenium Comet]].<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Jirachi.png|thumb|right|250px|Jirachi in the anime]]<br />
[[Jirachi (movie 6)|Jirachi's only major anime appearance]] was in ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. Jirachi will only awaken during the week of the thousand-year comet and if there is a partner that can be its friend. [[Max]] filled that role in the movie. However, [[Butler|The Great Butler]] wanted to use Jirachi's powers to awaken {{p|Groudon}}. <br />
<br />
A Jirachi also had a very brief cameo in ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''.<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===In [[Pokémon Adventures]]===<br />
The seven days Jirachi was awake coincided with the seven days of the opening ceremonies for the {{ho|Battle Frontier}}. At the request of [[Professor Oak]], {{adv|Emerald}} tried to capture Jirachi while he was there. However, [[Guile Hideout]] managed to capture Jirachi first. At the end of the chapter, Jirachi opened its third eye to Emerald and revived the five Pokédex holders.<br />
<br />
==In the TCG==<br />
{{main|Jirachi (TCG)}}<br />
<br />
==Other appearances==<br />
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===<br />
Jirachi appears as a rare Poké Ball Pokémon in its first appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series. The chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 (the amount of Pokémon in the current [[National Pokédex]]). Like the other &quot;secret&quot; Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Jirachi's case, the items are stickers.<br />
<br />
=====Trophy Information=====<br />
''A Wish Pokémon. It's said to awaken for seven days once every thousand years, with the ability to grant any wish asked of it. It is truly a Pokémon of which dreams are made. In combat it uses its wish power to attack. Its attack, {{M|Doom Desire}}, which causes light to rain down from the heavens to do tremendous damage, is especially powerful. ''<br />
<br />
==Game data==<br />
===NPC appearances===<br />
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby &amp; Sapphire]]: While in the Ruins, one of the slot machine prizes is the chance to capture Jirachi. Jirachi will move around and must be hit three times in 30 seconds for the capture to be successful. There is only one chance per pinball game.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Jirachi is the fastest {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, with a base speed of 100.<br />
* Jirachi is the only Pokémon with {{a|Serene Grace}} as its single [[ability]].<br />
* Jirachi, other than {{p|Smeargle}} and {{p|Arceus}} when not holding the {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}, is the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon legitimately able to know the move {{m|Draco Meteor}}. <br />
* In the anime, it is one of the few Pokémon who can [[Talking Pokémon|speak telepathically]]. <br />
* Jirachi and {{p|Manaphy}} have never been given an in-game location. Each Pokémon also starred in a [[Pokémon movie]] where they bonded with [[Max]] and {{an|May}}, respectively.<br />
**Jirachi stars in the movie in which {{p|Groudon}} made its first movie appearance, while Manaphy is the star Pokémon in a later movie in which {{p|Kyogre}} made its first movie appearance.<br />
*In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky, its streamers are a light green (most noticeably in its overworld sprites rather than the headshots.)<br />
*In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, [[Team Aqua]] leader [[Archie]] uses Jirachi's power to create a Kyogre monster, whereas in the anime movie [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]], former [[Team Magma]] member [[Butler]] uses Jirachi's power to create a Groudon monster.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Jirachi's design and ability of granting wishes probably refer to the habit of &quot;wishing upon a star&quot;, so that the wish will come true. Considering its humanoid appearance and ability to grant wishes, it is also possible that it was inspired by Arabic myths about {{wp|genie}}s, or djinn. In some myths, imprisoned genies would grant wishes to the person who released them. The tags of paper on its head are a reference toward {{wp|Tanabata}}.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Jirachi gets its name from желать ''zhelatʹ'', which is Russian for &quot;to desire&quot;. It could also be from the Japanese word 幸 ''sachi,'' which means wish, happiness, or fortune. It also may have gotten its name from the Biblical term, &quot;Jireh,&quot; which means provider.<br />

'''Jirachi''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジラーチ''' ''Jirachi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Jirachi is a small, white humanoid Pokémon. It has short, stubby limbs and prefers to float rather than walk. Its arms have flaps that give Jirachi the appearance of having long-sleeves. On its stomach is a curved seem, which conceals a third eye, its &quot;True&quot; eye. It rarely opens its third eye, which has the ability to absorb the energy it needs for hibernation. It has teal triangles on its face, under its eyes. These triangles resemble tears or clown makeup. It appears to be wearing a three point yellow/lite gold headdress, with a metallic gleam, and the resemlence of a star. On each of the points is a teal-colored tag, known as &quot;wish tags.&quot; On its back are two streamers, which flows behind it like the tail on a comet.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Jirachi is a genderless species.<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
[[Image:The Eye of Truth.png|thumb|right|250px|Jirachi's Eye of Truth]]<br />
Jirachi has the ability to grant wishes (only three in the manga) once every 1,000 years. It descends from outer space in the [[Millennium Comet]]. Like {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Celebi}}, Jirachi can levitate in the air, though it doesn't have that {{a|Levitate|ability}}.<br />
<br />
Jirachi is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Doom Desire}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Jirachi spends most of its time asleep and is only awake for seven days once every 1,000 years when a voice of purity sings to it. During this time, Jirachi has the power to grant wishes. It has a child-like, playful personality. It is bossy at times, especially when others refuse to entertain it.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]<br />
In the anime, Jirachi hibernates in [[Forina]]. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Jirachi is said to live in the mountains, likely in a deep cavern. It also is known to descend from outer space in the [[Millenium Comet]].<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Jirachi.png|thumb|right|250px|Jirachi in the anime]]<br />
[[Jirachi (movie 6)|Jirachi's only major anime appearance]] was in ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. Jirachi will only awaken during the week of the thousand-year comet and if there is a partner that can be its friend. [[Max]] filled that role in the movie. However, [[Butler|The Great Butler]] wanted to use Jirachi's powers to awaken {{p|Groudon}}. <br />
<br />
A Jirachi also had a very brief cameo in ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''.<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===In [[Pokémon Adventures]]===<br />
The seven days Jirachi was awake coincided with the seven days of the opening ceremonies for the {{ho|Battle Frontier}}. At the request of [[Professor Oak]], {{adv|Emerald}} tried to capture Jirachi while he was there. However, [[Guile Hideout]] managed to capture Jirachi first. At the end of the chapter, Jirachi opened its third eye to Emerald and revived the five Pokédex holders.<br />
<br />
==In the TCG==<br />
{{main|Jirachi (TCG)}}<br />
<br />
==Other appearances==<br />
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===<br />
Jirachi appears as a rare Poké Ball Pokémon in its first appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series. The chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 (the amount of Pokémon in the current [[National Pokédex]]). Like the other &quot;secret&quot; Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Jirachi's case, the items are stickers.<br />
<br />
=====Trophy Information=====<br />
''A Wish Pokémon. It's said to awaken for seven days once every thousand years, with the ability to grant any wish asked of it. It is truly a Pokémon of which dreams are made. In combat it uses its wish power to attack. Its attack, {{M|Doom Desire}}, which causes light to rain down from the heavens to do tremendous damage, is especially powerful. ''<br />
<br />
==Game data==<br />
===NPC appearances===<br />
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby &amp; Sapphire]]: While in the Ruins, one of the slot machine prizes is the chance to capture Jirachi. Jirachi will move around and must be hit three times in 30 seconds for the capture to be successful. There is only one chance per pinball game.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Jirachi is the fastest {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, with a base speed of 100.<br />
* Jirachi is the only Pokémon with {{a|Serene Grace}} as its single [[ability]].<br />
* Jirachi, other than {{p|Smeargle}} and {{p|Arceus}} when not holding the {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}, is the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon legitimately able to know the move {{m|Draco Meteor}}. <br />
* In the anime, it is one of the few Pokémon who can [[Talking Pokémon|speak telepathically]]. <br />
* Jirachi and {{p|Manaphy}} have never been given an in-game location. Each Pokémon also starred in a [[Pokémon movie]] where they bonded with [[Max]] and {{an|May}}, respectively.<br />
**Jirachi stars in the movie in which {{p|Groudon}} made its first movie appearance, while Manaphy is the star Pokémon in a later movie in which {{p|Kyogre}} made its first movie appearance.<br />
*In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky, its streamers are a light green (most noticeably in its overworld sprites rather than the headshots.)<br />
*In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, [[Team Aqua]] leader [[Archie]] uses Jirachi's power to create a Kyogre monster, whereas in the anime movie [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]], former [[Team Magma]] member [[Butler]] uses Jirachi's power to create a Groudon monster.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Jirachi's design and ability of granting wishes probably refer to the habit of &quot;wishing upon a star&quot;, so that the wish will come true. Considering its humanoid appearance and ability to grant wishes, it is also possible that it was inspired by Arabic myths about {{wp|genie}}s, or djinn. In some myths, imprisoned genies would grant wishes to the person who released them. The tags of paper on its head are a reference toward {{wp|Tanabata}}.<br />

'''Real-world animals''' have been mentioned more than once to exist in the [[Pokémon world|world of Pokémon]]. Most often, they are mentioned in relation to a [[species|Pokémon species]]. For example, {{p|Pikachu}} is known as the &quot;Mouse Pokémon&quot; hinting that real-world mice exist in the Pokémon world. Other than this, all other mentions of animals are rare.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
A few Pokédex entries have mentioned the existence of real-world animals.<br />
* In {{p|Raichu}}'s [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed]] [[Pokédex]] entry, {{wp|Indian Elephant}}s are mentioned.<br />
* In {{p|Golbat}}'s [[Pokémon Emerald Version|Emerald]] Pokédex entry, it says &quot;''Its fangs easily puncture even thick animal hide.&quot;''<br />

<br />
==In the anime==<br />
Animals have been seen in the {{pkmn|anime}}. They were more common in the [[original series]] as there weren't as many Pokémon species back then.

Also, at some points during the course of some episodes, viewers can hear the sounds of birds. <br />
<br />
Animal appearances have become less frequent as more and more Pokémon were added to take their places.<br />

'''Gotta Catch Ya Later!''' (Japanese: '''サヨナラ…そして、たびだち！''' ''Goodbye... And Then, Setting off!'') is the 273rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on November 7, 2002 and in the United States on October 18, 2003. <br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
== Synopsis ==<br />
With the [[Silver Conference]] and [[Johto]] behind them, {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] are heading towards [[Pallet Town]] and decide to make a stop in [[Viridian City]]. Brock is the most excited, simply because it means that he'll get to see [[Nurse Joy]]. Misty is, as usual, tired of Brock's misguided romantic efforts.<br />
<br />
Ash deposits his [[Poké Ball]]s at the [[Pokémon Center]], and asks Nurse Joy if she [[EP002|remembers him]]. It turns out that this Nurse Joy isn't the one he met all that time ago, but a new one. She has heard about him though, and tells Misty that she has received an urgent call from [[Cerulean City]]. Misty is confused as to why anyone would be calling her from there.<br />
<br />
Getting to a phone, Misty finds out the call is from her sisters. It turns out all three are going on an around the world trip that they won in a beauty contest, and therefore need Misty to take over the [[Cerulean Gym|Gym]] while they are away. Misty can't believe what she's hearing, and is angry when Ash and Brock comment on how lucky the sisters are winning the trip. Misty objects about having to take over for her sister, but Ash, not seeing Misty has other reasons for her objections tells her its only temporary. Nurse Joy then surprises Misty with her [[Bicycle|bike]] It turns out the previous Nurse Joy was able to fix it good as new. Seeing the bike brings back a lot of memories for Misty.Misty remembers how her journey with Ash began, when him [[EP001|stole the bike and ended up destroying it]]. Ash happily comments on how good Nurse Joy did in the restoration, and that Misty can get back to [[Cerulean City]] even quicker. This causes Misty's feelings to become hurt. After Ash asks why she was so grouchy, Misty runs out of the Pokémon Center. Ash is confused by Misty's reaction, and Brock points out that Misty may have expected to continue traveling with them.<br />
<br />
Misty wanders the streets of Viridian City very sadly, and comments on how Ash doesn't seem to understand or care that the trio will be splitting up. However, around the corner are three trainers waiting for her. They ask Misty if all her friends have abandoned her, angering Misty even further. Misty asks who they are, and the three introduce themselves as Viridian City's top trainers; Kim, Kail and Kai the [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers]]! Misty mocks them by word play on invincible with invisible, telling them to disappear. The leader Kim continued to Irritate Misty, who then challenges them to a [[Pokémon battle]].<br />
<br />
In a nearby field, Misty and Kim prepare to battle one-on-one. Misty sends out her {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} and Kim his {{p|Hitmonchan}}. Misty orders a {{m|Water Gun}}, and Politoed is easily able to knock Hitmonchan to the ground. Misty mocks them into changing their names (from the invincible brothers), which then provokes Kail and Kai to send out their Pokémon {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}. The three fighting Pokémon surround Politoed, and Misty calls them out on cheating, stating she can't battle fairly three-on-one. However she is saved when Ash and Brock arrive to make the match fair. Pikachu is able to get Hitmontop with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} and Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} who gets Hitmonlee with a {{m|Rapid Spin}}. Misty is glad to see her friends again, but angrily tells them she could have handled it. Ash and Brock tell her that they knew she could, but they wanted one last battle with the three of them. Ash than tells Misty that she's a great {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]], and he knows she can win the battle. Misty is touched by Ash's kind words, and with her faith in their friendship restored, she orders Politoed to use {{m|Bubble}} Attack which devestates Hitmonchan. Pikachu and Forretress then continue their assault on the other two, much to the brothers' dismay.<br />
<br />
As the battle rages, [[Team Rocket]] appear, and [[Jessie]] and [[James]] comment on the brothers losing. {{MTR}} cuts in, and on his command {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} presses a button which causes two goals to appear on opposite ends of the field. The trainer all notice this, and much to their horror the goals start to come together trapping Ash, Misty, Brock, the brothers and all the Pokémon inside. The brothers become distraught, claiming to be on Team Rockets side. This reveals that the three were hired by Team Rocket to battle and tire Ash and the gang out. However, since they failed not only will they not be getting paid (not that they were going to pay anyway), but Team Rocket will take their Pokémon along with the others. Kim However has a pair of scissors handy, and cuts the net away releasing everyone. The brothers and their Pokémon quickly surround Team Rocket, and begin to trash up a fuss over their money, much to Jessie's annoyance. This distraction, and the brother' destruction of the net allows Ash, Misty and Brock to escape. They order Pikachu, Politoed and Forretress to triple-team Both Team Rocket, the brothers and their Pokémon who are all sent blasting off.<br />
<br />
With the excitement over, Ash tells Misty how great it was watching her battle, and she thanks him. Ash informs her that he and Brock brought her bike, and Misty's excitment quickly diminishes. On the path towards Pewter and Cerulean City, Misty tells Ash not to forget to look after himself and Pikachu. She also tells Brock to try to not fall in love with all the girls which makes him laugh. She than says that she needs to tell Ash one more thing, &quot;Just keep on doing your best.&quot; Ash asks what she means, and Misty sadly responds by saying that it's going to be different without her there.<br />
<br />
She then remembers how she first met Ash, accidentally fishing him out of a lake and angrily pointing him in the direction of the Viridian City Pokémon Center. She also remembers all the experiences she's shared with Ash, Brock and {{Tracey}} as they traveled through [[Kanto]], the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] and [[Johto]] as well as the joys, the struggles, the triumphs, the fun, the hardships, the excitement and most of all the adventure which now has to end.<br />
<br />
She also recalls how it was an coincidence that she met {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}, but Ash tells her that he thinks she's wrong that it was an coincidence that he met her of all people. He tells her that he believes that no matter what, they were always meant to meet and become friends. Brock agrees, and tells them that after all their adventures they've all become best friends. Misty and Ash happily agree and continue down the path.<br />
<br />
Eventually the path splits into three with one route heading towards Pallet Town, another heading towards Cerulean City and the third heading towards [[Pewter City]]. Ash and Misty start to say their goodbyes, when Brock suddenly butts in telling them that he just remembered that he received an e-mail and needs to return to Pewter City. Ash asks how Brock could forget something like that, and Misty understands that maybe he didn't want to go.<br />
<br />
Now the time has come for all three to part ways, and head for their respective homes. The three bids each other farewell, and then Misty and Brock set off. With his friends gone, Ash starts to say the words he didn't feel he could, but suddenly Misty and Brock are back in front of him ready to hear it. Ash tells them they shouldn't sneak up on him, and Brock says that they returned to give Ash some presents. Brock gives Ash a small picnic complete with cutlery, while Misty gives him a handkerchief to wrap it in. Ash is touch by their gesture, and begins to cry. With that, the three best friends separate Ash, very upset about his long-time companions leaving, runs the rest of the way home.<br />
<br />
After a good night's sleep, Ash and Pikachu are happily eating their breakfasts, when {{Delia|Ash's mom}} mentions to him that {{Gary}} arrived back into town himself a couple of days ago. Ash is eager to meet up with his former rival and newfound friend, and quickly leaves with Pikachu. Delia comments to [[Mimey]] that she always misses him when he leaves on an adventure.<br />
<br />
Getting to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], Ash is dismayed when he learns that Gary has already left. Tracey tells Ash that Gary didn't mention where he was going, only that he woke up saying that he was feeling inspired and quickly left before being asked what he meant. [[Professor Oak]] mentions that Gary must have wanted to make a fresh start, as he left all of his Pokémon besides his {{TP|Gary|Blastoise}} at the lab before leaving, and that they have no idea when they'll even see him again.<br />
<br />
Gary is just about to leave Pallet Town behind, when Ash catches up to him. The two friends greet each other warmly, and Ash asks Gary what his hurry is. Gary tells Ash that he just feels he needs to keep moving, and that there's still a lot of traveling to do and a lot more to learn about Pokémon. Gary then asks Ash what he plans to do now, and Ash is forced to admit he doesn't know. Gary tells Ash that as he hasn't been home for a long time, that he should wait a while and really think about it. Gary starts to leave, but now it's Ash's turn to give a present to a departing friend, and gives Gary half of a [[Poké Ball]] Ash just broke. Gary thanks Ash, and sets off on his journey.<br />
<br />
Sitting on a tree, Ash tells Pikachu he doesn't like the feeling of being alone, and still isn't sure about what to do next. Suddenly Pikachu alerts Ash, who then looks up in the sky and spots a sparkle. To Ash's amazement its {{an|Ho-Oh}}! Watching it fly away, Ash notices it's heading towards the [[Hoenn]] region. He knows that Hoenn has a lot of Pokémon he's never seen before, and a lot of battles awaiting him. Suddenly Ash feels his spirit return, and decides to do like Gary and make a fresh start and head to Hoenn. He starts to run home, but falls into a classic Team Rocket pitfall trap.<br />
<br />
Ash comments on how he was not &quot;prepared&quot; for the fall, and Jessie goes into her lines of the motto. James mentions that the pit is extra deep, and three have gone back to the classic plan of snaring Pikachu. James calls out {{TP|James|Weezing}} to send a {{m|SmokeScreen}} down the pit. Soon the entire area is filled with smoke causing Ash and Pikachu to start choking. Ash tries to think of something to do, and remembers Misty and Brock's final words and parting gifts. He gets an idea, and after fishing them out of his bag, has Pikachu cover it's mouth with the handkerchief while he climbs out with the cutlery given to him by Brock. As he climbs out of the pit, he realizes that he is never alone. Ash springs from the pit trap, and confronts and Team Rocket, informing them that his friends will always be with him. Ash orders Pikachu to hit them with a Thunderbolt, blasting them off yet again. With the dust clearing, Ash looks at the gifts from Brock and Misty thanking them. He looks up into the sky, and comments on the beginning of another journey to become the greatest Pokémon Master.<br />
<br />
Back home, Ash tells Professor Oak and Tracey that he has decided to do the same as Gary and leave all of his Pokémon besides Pikachu at the lab. Professor Oak guesses that Ash is heading to Hoenn, and Ash tells him that he plans to meet [[Professor Birch]] in [[Littleroot Town]]. Tracey agrees with Ash's idea because of Professor Birch being famous for his field work. Ash thanks his friend, when Delia arrives with new clothes for her son having guessed he would be leaving soon. She also has his ticket for the ferry that departs from the [[Seafoam Islands]] to the Hoenn Region. Professor Oak gives Ash a brand new [[Pokédex]] that contains all the information on the Pokémon that reside in the [[Hoenn]] region. Tracey also tells Ash he can count on him to take care of his Pokémon while he's away. With a renewed sense of determination, Ash gets ready to set off Hoenn knowing that a brand new set of adventures await him.<br />

<br />
=== Dub edits ===<br />
[[Image:The_gang.png‎|thumb|right|Shot specifically produced for the original Japanese version]]<br />
* The flashback about the good times Misty spent with her friends is different in both versions: the dubbed English flashback pushes [[PokéShipping]] while the original Japanese flashback focuses on Misty's accomplishments as a Pokémon trainer and as a friend, and even ends with a group shot of Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Togepi, Brock, and Tracey (specifically created for this episode). The original flashback plays a really dramatic piece of music, while the dub flashback plays a brand new vocal song:<br />
::''Goodbye, funny how that's such a hard thing to say.''<br />
::''Now it's time to let go but... never thought I'd feel this way.''<br />
::''Promised not to be sad but... we both knew I was lying.''<br />
::''Gotta fight back the tears cause can't let you see me crying''<br />
::''You're more than just my best friend''<br />
::''What makes me misty most of all,''<br />
::''In our final curtain call,''<br />
::''Is knowing that I won't see you again.''<br />

Ash deposits his [[Poké Ball]]s at the [[Pokémon Center]], and asks Nurse Joy if she [[EP002|remembers him]]. It turns out that this Nurse Joy isn't the one he met all that time ago, but a new one. She has heard about him though, and tells Misty that she has received an urgent call from [[Cerulean City]]. Misty is confused as to why anyone would be calling her from there.<br />
<br />
Getting to a phone, Misty finds out the call is from her sisters. It turns out all three are going on an around the world trip that they won in a beauty contest, and therefore need Misty to take over the [[Cerulean Gym|Gym]] while they are away. Misty can't believe what she's hearing, and is angry when Ash and Brock comment on how lucky the sisters are winning the trip as doesn't see why she's expected to just take over the Gym, even if it is on a temporary basis. Just then Nurse Joy arrives with another surprise for Misty... her [[Bicycle|bike]]! It turns out the previous Nurse Joy was able to fix it and it's as good as new. Seeing the bike brings back a lot of memories for Misty, and remembers how her journey with Ash began, with him [[EP001|stealing the bike only to end up destroying it]]. Ash happily comments that now Misty can get back to Cerulean City even quicker which just makes Misty's already foul mood worse, and thinking that Ash wants her gone, angrily leaves the Pokémon Center. Ash is confused by Misty's reaction, and Brock points out that Misty may have expected to continue traveling with them.<br />
<br />
Misty wanders the streets of Viridian City very sadly, and comments on how Ash doesn't seem to care that the gang that have been through so much together are now splitting up. Waiting for her on the street, however, are three men. They ask Misty if all her friends have abandoned her. Misty really isn't in the mood and angrily asks who they are, and three introduce themselves as Viridian City's top trainers; Kim, Kail and Kai... the [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers]]! Misty can't be bothered with their theatrics, and asks if they want a [[Pokémon battle]]. All three brothers are intrigued.<br />
<br />
Going to a nearby field, the rules are declared to be a one-on-one and Kim is up first. He sends out a {{p|Hitmonchan}} and Misty responds by sending out {{TP|Misty|Politoed}}. Misty orders a {{m|Water Gun}}, and Politoed is able to knock Hitmonchan to the ground easily. Kail and Kai send out their Pokémon, a {{p|Hitmonlee}} and a {{p|Hitmontop}}. The three fighting Pokémon surround Politoed and Misty complains that she can't battle against them three-on-one. However she is saved when Ash and Brock arrive to make the match fair. Pikachu is able to get Hitmontop with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} and Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} and it gets Hitmonlee with a {{m|Rapid Spin}}. Misty is glad to see her friends again, but angrily tells them she could have handled it. Ash and Brock tell her that they know she could, but they wanted one last battle with the three of them. Ash also tells Misty that she's a great {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]] and he knows she can win the battle. Misty is touched by Ash's kind words, and with their friendship restored, the three trainers easily knock out all the {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon, much to the brothers' dismay.<br />
<br />
Not far away, however, is [[Team Rocket]]. After deciding to show how a real team of three losers operates, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} presses a button which causes two goals to appear on opposite ends of the field and come together trapping Ash, Misty, Brock, the three brothers and all the Pokémon inside. It turns out that the three brothers were hired by Team Rocket to take care of the twerps and since they failed not only will they not be getting paid (not that they were going to pay anyway), but now they were be taking their Pokémon as well as all the twerps. However it turns out that Kim has a pair of scissors handy and cuts the net away, releasing the brothers who quickly surround [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} with their Pokémon. This also allows Ash, Misty and Brock to escape. They order Team Rocket taken care of and with Pikachu, Politoed and Forretress triple-teaming them Team Rocket and the brothers are all sent blasting off.<br />
<br />
With the excitement over, Ash tells Misty how great it was watching her battle and she thanks him... but now it's time to be setting off for their homes. On the path, Misty tells Ash not to forget to look after himself and Pikachu and tells Brock to try to not fall in love with all the girls which makes Brock laugh. She also says that she needs to tell Ash one more thing... to keep trying his best. Ash asks what she means, and Misty sadly responds says that it's going to be different without her there... <br />
<br />
She then remembers how she first met Ash, accidentally fishing him out of a lake and angrily pointing him in the direction of the Viridian City Pokémon Center. She also remembers all the experiences she's shared with Ash, Brock and {{Tracey}} as they traveled through [[Kanto]], the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] and [[Johto]] as well as the joys, the struggles, the triumphs, the fun, the hardships, the excitement and most of all the adventure which now has to end.<br />
<br />
She also recalls how it was an accident that she met {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}, but Ash tells her that he thinks she's wrong that it was an accident that he met her of all people. He tells her that he believes that no matter what, they were always meant to meet and become friends. Brock agrees, and tells them that after all their adventures they've all become best friends. Misty and Ash happily agree and continue down the path.<br />
<br />
Eventually the path splits into three with one route heading towards Pallet Town, another heading towards Cerulean City and the third heading towards [[Pewter City]]. Ash and Misty start to say their goodbyes, when Brock suddenly butts in telling them that he just remembered that he received an e-mail and needs to return to Pewter City. Ash asks how Brock could forget something like that, and Misty understands that maybe he didn't want to go.<br />
<br />
Now the time has come for all three to part ways and head for their respective homes. The three bids each other farewell, and then Misty and Brock set off. With his friends gone, Ash starts to say the words he didn't feel he could... when suddenly Misty and Brock are back in front of him ready to hear it. Ash tells them they shouldn't sneak up on them, and Brock says that they returned to give Ash some presents. Brock gives Ash a small picnic complete with cutlery, while Misty gives him a handkerchief to wrap it in. Ash is touch by their gesture, and begins to cry. With that, the three best friends separate Ash, very upset about his long-time companions leaving, runs the rest of the way home.<br />
<br />
After a good night's sleep, Ash and Pikachu are happily tucking into their breakfasts when {{Delia|his mom}} mentions to Ash that {{Gary}} arrived back himself a couple of days ago. Ash is eager to meet up with his former rival and newfound friend and quickly leaves with Pikachu. Delia comments to [[Mimey]] that she always misses him when he leaves on an adventure.<br />
<br />
Getting to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], Ash is dismayed to be told that Gary has already left. Tracey tells Ash that Gary didn't mention where he was going, only that he woke up saying that he was feeling inspired and quickly left before being asked what he meant. [[Professor Oak]] mentions that Gary must have wanted to make a fresh start, as he left all of his Pokémon besides his {{TP|Gary|Blastoise}} at the lab before leaving and that they have no idea when they'll even see him again.<br />
<br />
Gary is just about to leave Pallet Town behind when Ash catches up to him. The two friends greet each other warmly, and Ash asks Gary what his hurry is. Gary tells Ash that he just feels he needs to keep moving, and that there's still a lot of traveling to do and lot more to learn about Pokémon. Gary then asks Ash what he plans to do now, and Ash is forced to admit he doesn't know. Gary tells Ash that as he hasn't been home for a long time he should wait a while and really think about it. Gary starts to leave, but now it's Ash's turn to give a present to a departing friend and gives Gary his half of the broken Poké Ball back. Gary thanks Ash, and sets off on his journey.<br />
<br />
Sitting on a tree, Ash tells Pikachu he doesn't like the feeling of being alone and still isn't sure about what to do next. Suddenly Ash spots a sparkle in the sky and looks up... to see {{an|Ho-Oh}}! Watching it fly away, Ash notices where it's heading... to the [[Hoenn]] region. He knows that Hoenn has a lot of Pokémon he's never seen before, and a lot of battles awaiting him. Suddenly Ash feels his spirit return, and decides to do like Gary and make a fresh start and head to Hoenn! He starts to run home... and falls into a classic Team Rocket pitfall trap.<br />
<br />
The motto is performed as always, and James mentions that the pit is extra deep and three have gone back to the classic plan of snaring Pikachu. James commands {{TP|James|Weezing}} to send a {{m|SmokeScreen}} down the pit. Soon the entire area is filled with smoke causing Ash and Pikachu to start choking. Ash tries to think of something to do, and remembers Misty and Brock's final words and parting gifts. He gets an idea, and after fishing them out of his bag, has Pikachu cover it's mouth with the handkerchief while he climbs out with the cutlery given to him by Brock. As he climbs out of the pit, he realizes that he is never alone and that his friends will always be with him. Getting out of the pit, Ash confronts Team Rocket and sends them blasting off again courtesy of Pikachu's Thunderbolt. Ash knows that one journey is over, another one is about to begin.<br />
<br />
Back home, Ash tells Professor Oak and Tracey that he has decided to do the same as Gary and leave all of his Pokémon besides Pikachu at the lab. Professor Oak guesses that Ash is heading to Hoenn and Ash tells him that he plans to meet [[Professor Birch]] in [[Littleroot Town]]. Tracey agrees with Ash's idea and reassures him that he'll look after all his Pokémon while he is away. Ash thanks his friend, when Delia arrives with new clothes for her son having guessed he would be leaving soon. She also has his ticket for the ferry that departs from the [[Seafoam Islands]]. Professor Oak gives Ash a brand new [[Pokédex]] that contains all the information on the Pokémon that reside in the [[Hoenn]] region. With a renewed sense of determination, Ash gets ready to set off Hoenn knowing that a brand new set of adventures await him.<br />

=== Dub edits ===<br />
[[Image:The_gang.png‎|thumb|right|Shot specifically produced for the original Japanese version]]<br />
* The flashback about the good times Misty spent with her friends is different in both versions: the dubbed English flashback pushes [[PokéShipping]] while the original Japanese flashback focuses on Misty's accomplishments as a Pokémon trainer and as a friend, and even ends with a group shot of Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Togepi, Brock, and Tracey (specifically created for this episode). The original flashback plays a really dramatic piece of music, while the dub flashback plays a brand new vocal song:<br />
::''Goodbye, funny how that's such a hard thing to say.''<br />
::''Now it's time to let go but... never thought I'd feel this way.''<br />
::''Promised not to be sad but... we both knew I was lying.''<br />
::''Gotta fight back the tears cause can't let you see me crying''<br />
::''You're more than just my best friend''<br />
::''What makes me misty most of all,''<br />
::''In our final curtain call,''<br />
::''Is knowing that I won't see you again.''<br />

'''Sandslash''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンドパン''' ''Sandpan'') is a {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Sandshrew}} starting at [[level]] 22.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Sandslash is a ground-dwelling [[wikipedia:pangolin|pholidote]] notable for its offensive and defensive capabilities. Its body is mostly covered in sharp quills formed from its tough, dry hide. It can curl into a large ball to protect its underbelly, and in this position it can roll to attack or escape. Its primary weapon is the large claws on its paws, which can be used to {{m|slash}} at enemies but which also useful for burrowing quickly and can sometimes be poisoned. Its claws and spikes can both break off and are shed regularly, but grow back quickly.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
None.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Sandslash are able to roll themselves into sharp balls of spikes, which can be used to both attack and defend themselves. In this ball form Sandslash can protect themselves from heatstroke, and can even kick up a dust storm. Sandslash is also adept at climbing trees, and is prone to ambush its enemies from above.<br />
<br />
Like most evolved Pokémon, Sandslash can generate a {{m|Hyper Beam}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
In the wild, Sandslash are more offensive than their pre-evolution, {{p|Sandshrew}}, but are still mostly defensive by nature. They spend much of their time hidden underground in their burrows, and will kick up sand or curl into a ball to escape predators. It will also curl into a ball to prevent heatstroke during the high temperatures of the daytime in its habitat. Although it is known to regrow its claws and spines if broken or snapped off, it does seem to have habitual molting, for once a year the old spikes fall out, to be replaced with new spikes that grow out from beneath the old spikes. <br />
<br />
When needed, they can perform a variety of techniques to attack enemies, including slashing at them, rolling at them while curled up, and even climbing trees and attacking from above.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon}}]]<br />
They are adapted to dry, arid areas. Thus, they can mostly be found in deserts and grasslands, and sometimes in river valleys or the upper levels of [[caves]] as well. Wherever they are, they live underground in burrows.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
Sandslash do not require a lot of water, due to a very efficient system of staying hydrated with minimal moisture. They hunt for prey in the wild.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Sandslash anime.JPG|thumb|right|210px|A {{pkmn|Trainer}} and his Sandslash]]<br />
===Major appearances===<br />
In ''[[EP141|Good 'Quil Hunting]]'', a Pokémon Trainer named [[Koji]] informed {{Ash}} about a place that was good for catching {{p|Cyndaquil}}. After Ash captured a Cyndaquil, the trainer challenged Ash to a 1-on-1 Pokémon battle to determine who'd keep the Cyndaquil. Koji used a Sandslash against [[Ash's Cyndaquil]] and lost.<br />
<br />
In ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador]]'', several Sandslash helped dig a new lake for the {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon at [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Lab]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time &amp; Darkness]]'', Sandslash was a member of Team Razor Wind, along with {{p|Scyther}} and {{p|Zangoose}}. The trio of clawed Pokémon were first seen being blasted out of the [[Wigglytuff's Guild|Wigglytuff Guild]]. Team Razor Wind overheard that [[Team Poképals]] were assigned with the task of traveling to the Labyrinth Cave to get a {{p|Gabite}} Scale for an ailing {{p|Shinx}}, and decided to attempt beating the Poképals. Unfortunately for Team Razor Wind, Gabite beat them up.<br />
<br />
===Minor appearances===<br />
Sandslash first appeared in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''. It was stuck underneath the rocky skin of [[Bruno's Onix|a giant Onix]] and causing so much pain, that the Rock Snake Pokémon was on a rampage. [[Bruno]] helped to get the Sandslash out.<br />
<br />
A Sandslash owned by [[Corey]] was one of the Pokémon that was captured and cloned by {{an|Mewtwo}} in ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] saw this Pokémon being cloned, it was mistaken for its pre-evolution, Sandshrew. The Sandslash clone was seen again in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.<br />
<br />
Sandslash also made a cameo in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'' as a Pokémon belonging to {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}}.<br />
<br />
In ''[[DP008|Gymbaliar!]]'' a Sandslash was under the ownership of a boy Trainer battling [[Jessie]] for &quot;a [[Badge]]&quot;. It lost to Jessie's (then) {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}.<br />
<br />
A group of Sandslash also appeared in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]''.<br />
<br />

==In the manga==<br />
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Sandslash's most dominant appearance was in ''[[PS145|When Sandslash Gets Rowdy]]''. While trying to find out their location, {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}} are attacked by a swarm of spiky balls, which are revealed to be Sandslash migrating in response to the wrath of {{p|Lugia}}.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Sandslash's original name was &quot;Sand''storm''&quot;.<br />
** If this had happened, it would have been the only Pokémon with the same name as {{m|Sandstorm|a move}}.<br />
* Although being one of the few pure Ground-type Pokémon in the first generations, Sandslash did not learn any damage-dealing {{type2|Ground}} move via leveling up until Generation III.<br />
* Although its species is the Mouse Pokémon, non of the animals it draws its design inspiration from are actually rodents.<br />
* Both {{p|Sandshrew}} and Sandslash are mentioned to have poisonous claws. This relates to one of their real life counterpart the Shrew, where several species are known to be venomous.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Sandslash share various physical traits with both {{wp|hedgehog}}s and {{wp|pangolin}}s.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Sandslash's name is a combination of ''sand'' and ''slash'', referring to its long claws. Its Japanese name may be a combination of ''sand'' and ''{{wp|pangolin}}''.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Sandamer - From ''Sand''.<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Sablaireau - From ''sable'' (sand) and ''blaireau'' ({{wp|badger}}).<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 고지 ''Koji''<br />
* [[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong and Taiwan)]]: 穿山王 ''Chuan Shan Wáng'' - A portmanteau of 穿山甲 ''Chuan Shan Jia'' ({{wp|pangolin}} and 王 (king). Literally &quot;king of going through mountains&quot;.<br />

'''Sandshrew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンド''' ''Sand'') is a {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Sandslash}} starting at [[level]] 22.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Sandshrew is a ground-dwelling [[wikipedia:pangolin|pholidote]] notable for its defensive capabilities. Its body is mostly covered in a dry, tough hide which is colored to blend in with the sands of the desert. It can curl into a tight ball about the same size as a [[wp:Basketball#Equipment|basketball]] to protect its soft underbelly. Its primary weapon is the small but sharp claws on its paws, which are also useful for burrowing and can sometimes be poisoned.<br />
<br />
===Gender differences===<br />
None.<br />
<br />
===Special abilities===<br />
Sandshrew's special abilities are extremely limited compared to other Pokémon. It has a greater control over the ground and sand than the average Pokémon, mostly derived from adaptation to its habitat.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
In the wild, Sandshrew are mostly defensive by nature. They spend much of their time hidden underground in their burrows and will kick up sand or curl into a ball to escape predators. They may venture out to hunt, taking advantage of the desert sands to hide themselves.<br />
<br />
However, with the help of a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a Sandshrew can become bolder and much more daring, and can even be trained to swim despite the fact that they are weakened by the water. They are still fond of curling up, though, even if not for defense.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon}}]]<br />
Sandshrew are adapted to dry, arid areas. Thus, they can be commonly found in deserts and grasslands, and sometimes in river valleys or the upper levels of caves as well. Wherever they are, they live underground in burrows.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
Sandshrew do not require a lot of water, due to a very efficient system of staying hydrated with minimal moisture. They hunt for prey in the wild.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Mira's Sandshrew.PNG|200px|thumb|right|Sandshrew in the anime]]<br />
===Major appearances===<br />
Sandshrew was first featured in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''. It was owned by a Pokémon Trainer named [[A.J.]]. Despite A.J.'s seemly barbaric training methods (e.g. using a whip, training in a pool), it was very loyal to him.<br />
<br />
[[Mira]] enlisted {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} to help her retrieve her Sandshrew that is lost at the bottom of an artificial lake created by a dammed river in ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]''.<br />
<br />
===Minor appearances===<br />
Ash Ketchum and Pikachu pass three Sandshrew in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'' while being chased by a flock of wild Spearow.<br />
<br />
An ailing Sandshrew is seen briefly near the beginning of ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''.<br />
<br />
A Sandshrew was one of the Pokémon that played Hide-n-Seek in ''[[PK11|Pikachu's PikaBoo]]''. Sandshrew hid in front of a brick wall.<br />
<br />
A Sandshrew was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.<br />
<br />
It also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.<br />
<br />
A Sandshrew appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''.<br />
<br />
A Sandshrew was also seen at the [[Shelter Town]]'s [[Pokémon Center]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]''.<br />

<br />
==In the manga==<br />
[[Professor Oak]] had a Sandshrew in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]].<br />
<br />
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===<br />
Sandshrew makes a cameo in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'', part of the {{chap|Red, Green &amp; Blue}}, battling against {{Adv|Red}}'s [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] as a [[Pewter Gym]] Trainer's Pokémon.<br />
<br />
{{adv|Red}} also had a Sandshrew he uses to fight {{type2|Fire}}s.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
*Sandshrew is the first {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order. <br />
*Sandshrew and {{p|Sandslash}} share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Raticate}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, and {{p|Raichu}}. They are all known as the Mouse Pokémon, though Rattata and Raticate have also been called the Rat Pokémon.<br />
** It should be noted however that neither shrews, armadillos nor pangolins (all of which Sandshrew has been based on) are actually rodents.<br />
** It should also be noted that some species of shrew are venomous, and both Sandshrew and Sandslash are mentioned to have poisonous claws.<br />
* Although Sandshrew was introduced in [[Generation I]] as a pure {{type2|Ground}}, it could not learn any Ground-type attacks via level-up until [[Generation III]].<br />
* Sandshrew gets {{m|Rock Slide}} and {{m|Swords Dance}} as egg moves, despite it being compatible with the TMs for aforementioned moves.<br />
** Presumably this is because neither move was a TM in [[Generation III]], and both moves were on Sandshrew's egg move list in Generation III.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Though its design appears to be inspired by {{wp|armadillo}}s, its actual inspiration was the {{wp|pangolin}}, which is a scaly-anteater by another name. It curls up into a ball, has sharp claws, and lives in desert regions.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Sandshrew's name is a combination of ''sand'' and ''{{wp|shrew}}'', a small rodent-like mammal. Its Japanese name simply refers to sand.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Sandan - Corruption of ''Sand''.<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Sabelette - From ''sable'' (sand) and ''belette'' (weasel).<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 모래두지 ''Moraeduji''<br />
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong)]]: 穿山鼠 ''Chuan Shan Shű'' - A portmanteau of 穿山甲 ''Chuan Shan Jia'' ({{wp|pangolin}}) and 鼠 (mouse). Literally means &quot;mouse that passes through mountains&quot;.<br />

'''Turtwig''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナエトル''' ''Naetle'') is a {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Grotle}} starting at [[level]] 18, who evolves into {{p|Torterra}} starting at [[level]] 32.<br />
<br />
Along with {{p|Chimchar}} and {{p|Piplup}}, it is one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] the {{player}} can choose at the beginning of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Turtwig's appearance is characteristic of a turtle or tortoise, and it is primarily light green in coloration. Its prominent, yellow-colored jawbone may denote a relationship to the snapping turtle. Its green and yellow body is covered by a shell. A small seedling grows on a brown-colored patch on its head, similar to the plant bulb on {{p|Bulbasaur}}'s back and the leaf on {{p|Chikorita}}'s head, the plant part revealing its Grass-type nature. The brown shell on its back has a thick black stripe and rim, and is apparently made of {{t|Ground|earth}}. Turtwig’s eyes are yellow, as are its feet, and Turtwig’s tail is small.<br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
None.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Turtwig can utilize the [[Weather conditions#Intense sunlight|Sun]] in order to use moves like {{m|Synthesis}} and {{m|SolarBeam}}. Its rock hard shell provides great defense but reduces its speed. Turtwig receives a huge {{a|Overgrow|power boost}} to its {{type2|Grass}} moves when it is weary from battle. Turtwig are also capable of many other Grass-type moves such as {{m|Razor Leaf}} and {{m|Giga Drain}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Turtwig is a Pokémon that tends to be non-violent. As a show of affection, some Turtwig have been known to chomp their trainer's head. The leaf on its head will wilt if it becomes thirsty. As a result, it lives in areas that are close to lakes.<br />
<br />
Turtwig is also sometimes either shy and lazy, or outgoing and protective.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
Turtwig are somewhat scarce in the wild. They're usually given to young [[Pokémon Trainer]]s as a [[starter Pokémon]] by [[Professor Rowan]]. Turtwig can be found living along lakes in dense forests. <br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
As a plant-based Pokémon, Turtwig usually nourishes itself through photosynthesis. It can eat [[berry|berries]] like other Pokémon. It also drinks water, which hardens its soil-based shell. On a very healthy Turtwig, the shell should feel moist.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Turtwig-anime.jpg|thumb|210px|[[Ash's Grotle|Ash's Turtwig]]]]<br />
Turtwig made its debut appearance in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden Voyage]]''.<br />
<br />
{{Ash}} obtained his {{AP|Turtwig|Grotle}} in ''[[DP005|Gettin' Twiggy With It]]''.<br />
<br />
The [[Gym Leader]] [[Gardenia]] has a {{TP|Gardenia|Turtwig}} that first appeared in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type is Always Greener!]]''.<br />
<br />
Another Turtwig also appeared in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Paul]]'s starter was a Turtwig, which has fully evolved into a {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}. It appeared as a Turtwig in a flashback with Paul in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]''.<br />

<br />
==In the manga==<br />
{{adv|Diamond}} owns a Turtwig, which he nicknamed &quot;[[Wig]]&quot; in [[Pokémon Adventures]], which evolved into a {{p|Grotle}} simultaneously with [[Chimhiko]] ({{adv|Pearl}}'s {{p|Chimchar}}), and {{adv|Platinum}}'s {{p|Piplup}} in [[Eterna City]], and then again in [[Veilstone City]] into a {{p|Torterra}} along with Chimhiko.<br />

'''Mawile''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クチート''' ''Kucheat'') is a {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Mawile are short yellow and black Pokémon. Their legs have yellow coverings that give the appearance of a dress or bellbottom pants. Their most famous feature, though, is a pair of huge jaw-like horns that grow from the backs of their heads. They are able to open and close these jaws at will and use them to bite or ward off potential threats.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
None.<br />
<br />
===Special abilities===<br />
Their abilities range from {{a|Hyper Cutter}}, which prevents the power of their attack from ever lowering, to {{a|Intimidate}}, which lowers the attack power of the opponent. Both abilities are used to ensure that Mawile is the Pokémon with the higher attack power in battle.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Rather than attacking an opponent head on, this Pokémon lives up to its nickname, the deceiver. It will turn its back to its foes and cleverly use its dual horns which are disguised as a pair of huge jaws, making it look much more vicious and powerful than it really is. If this doesn't fend off a foe, Mawile has another ace up its sleeve. Mawile is the only non-legendary Pokémon that is purely {{t|Steel}}. This makes a Mawile a tough foe to beat in battle.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]<br />
Mawile tend to live in caves, grottoes or other dark and dank places.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
Its huge steel jaws may suggest that it's a carnivore, but it is unknown for certain. However, they do have an affinity with the [[Occa Berry]], as they are occasionally found with this berry.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:OnceinaMawile.jpg|right|thumb|Mawile in the anime]]<br />
Mawile first appeared in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]''. The Deceiver Pokémon was owned by a woman named [[Samantha]] and had a crush on [[Brock's Ludicolo|Brock's Lombre]], but Lombre didn't feel any affection for Mawile. After the Jolly Pokémon evolved into a {{p|Ludicolo}} by finding a {{evostone|Water Stone}} in Samantha's backpack, it finally found itself affectionate toward Mawile. However, Mawile decided it didn't like the fully evolved Ludicolo and moved on to another boy's {{p|Psyduck}}.<br />
<br />
A Mawile appeared in a fantasy in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''.<br />

<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Mawile's [[footprint]] is different between the [[Generation III]] games ([[File:F303gen3.png]]) and the [[Generation IV]] games ([[File:F303.png]]).<br />
*Mawile's Ruby Pokédex entry erroneously has its name spelled &quot;Maw'''''h'''''ile&quot;. This mistake is only present in the American versions and was corrected for the English versions available in other regions.<br />
*Mawile, along with {{p|Registeel}}, are the only pure {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon. As such, this makes Mawile the only non-legendary, pure Steel-type.<br />
**Also, by being a pure {{type2|Steel}} it has eleven resistances and one immunity, the second highest number among all Pokémon, second only to {{p|Magnemite}} and its evolutions. Other Pokémon who share this number of resistances and immunity are {{p|Registeel}}, {{p|Empoleon}} and {{p|Dialga}}.<br />
*In Generation III, Mawile doesn't learn any moves that it gets [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] from.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
It may have been based on the Japanese legend of the ''{{wp|futakuchi-onna}}'', a woman with a mouth in the back of her head. The fact that it can learn {{m|Sweet Scent}} may indicate a relation to a {{wp|carnivorous plant}}, similar to {{p|Carnivine}}.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Mawile's name is a combination of ''{{wp|maw}}'', the mouth of a voracious animal, and ''wile'', a stratagem or trick intended to deceive or ensnare. Its Japanese name is a combination of 口 ''kuchi'', mouth, and English ''cheat'' or ''eat''.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Flunkifer - From ''flunkern'' (to lie) and ''kiefer'' (jaw).<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Mysdibule - Possibly a combination of ''mystical'' and ''{{wp|mandible}}'', the scientific name for the jawbone.<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 입치트 ''Ipcheat''&lt;!-- ''''--&gt;<br />

(Japanese: '''{{tt|幻影|げんえい}}の{{tt|覇者|はしゃ}} {{tt|Ｚ|ゼット}}''' ''Gen'ei no Hasha Z'', literally ''Phantom Ruler Z '') is the fourth {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}} movie and the thirteenth [[Pokémon movie]] overall. It is planned to premiere in Japanese theaters on July 10, 2010. <br />

==Plot==<br />
Very few details are currently known about the movie, however, the [[legendary beasts]] and {{p|Celebi}} are confirmed to appear. It has been hinted that Celebi may have a central role in the film, much as in ''[[Pokémon 4Ever]]'', and that {{wp|time travel}} may once again be a plot point. Movie taglines hint that Celebi may travel back in time to prevent a future incident involving the legendary beasts. At some point in the movie, Ash will encounter a darker version of himself.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* This movie marks the first time all three of the [[legendary beasts]] will appear at the same time in the anime, and the first time {{p|Raikou}} gets a starring role in a movie.<br />
*In a short teaser trailer released over the summer of 2009, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} were shown in an aerial battle. It is unknown if the two will make an appearance in the final edition of the movie, as they were not mentioned or shown in the latest trailer.<br />

'''Magikarp''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コイキング''' ''Koiking'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Gyarados}} starting at [[level]] 20.<br />
<br />
Due to its low [[stats]] (Speed, however, at 80, being the highest) and the fact that it only has the move {{m|Splash}} until level 15, Magikarp is often considered the weakest Pokémon in existence.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Magikarp is a reddish-orange, medium-sized fish. Its notable characteristics include large, heavy scales. Its fins are primarily white, but it has two stiff, three-peaked fins on its back and stomach which are both yellow. It also has long barbels. <br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
A female has white barbels and a male has tan barbs.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Long-lived Magikarp are able to utilize their immense {{m|splash}}ing power to leap high enough to jump mountains. Magikarp also have a strong enough immune system to survive in the most polluted of waters.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Although this Pokémon is capable of surviving in even the most polluted ponds, it is usually overlooked by trainers because it is pathetically weak: even in the heat of battle it will do nothing but flop around. It is not a strong swimmer, and currents in the water will sweep it downstream. They are normally seen using {{m|Splash}}, which is unusual, as it makes them easy targets to predators. Before the species multiplied, it is believed that the ancestors of Magikarp were actually much stronger than the Magikarp seen today, and this belief has led scientists to research this species.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]<br />
Magikarp is found in many bodies of water, such as lakes, rivers, and ponds. However, due to its weak swimming ability it usually lives downstream of the water's flow.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Jessie_magikarp.jpg|thumb|right|210px|Magikarp in the anime]]<br />
===Major Appearances===<br />
Several episodes, the first one being in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', involve a particular [[Magikarp salesman|salesman]] trying to sell certain Pokémon to someone. The person he is usually trying to con is [[James]] and he usually sells {{TP|Magikarp salesman|Magikarp}}, claiming that they're very valuable.<br />
<br />
In ''[[EP092|The Joy of Pokémon]]'', a [[Nurse Joy]] from the Orange Islands befriended a giant Magikarp that saved her as a child. It evolved into an equally large Gyarados, but it remained friendly.<br />
<br />
In ''[[EP109|The Wacky Watcher]]'', {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and {{Tracey}} help a Pokémon Watcher named [[Quincy T. Quackenpoker]] observe the migration and evolution of a school of Magikarp.<br />
<br />
Another, in ''[[DP021|Ya See We Want an Evolution]]'', was nicknamed the strongest. This Magikarp was unique in that it was in fact able to battle surprisingly well, even giving Pikachu a hard time.<br />
<br />
===Minor Appearances===<br />
Magikarp are very often seen in any underwater scene. This is most likely a reference to their extreme abundance in the games. <br />
<br />
[[Team Rocket]] used a Magikarp-shaped submarine during the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]].<br />
<br />
Several Magikarp appeared in ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]'' swimming along with [[Team Rocket]]'s Magikarp-shaped submarine.<br />
<br />
In ''[[AG092|Judgement Day]]'', a {{shiny2}} Magikarp appeared in a flashback under the ownership of {{ho|Jimmy}} and was later traded.<br />
<br />
A Magikarp appeared in ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]''.<br />
<br />
In ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team]]'', Jessie used a different Magikarp in the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon.<br />
<br />
It was also seen as part of [[Lila]]'s famous &quot;Tiger Lily Smile&quot; background in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''.<br />
<br />
Another Magikarp also appeared in [[DP140]].<br />
<br />
Totodile juggled three Magikarp with its Water Gun in ''[[EP153|Love, Totodile Style]]''<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* As of {{game|Platinum}}, Magikarp is tied at the lowest (with {{p|Regigigas}}), and ironically, the highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture at level 1 and 100, beating out even the level 80 {{p|Arceus}} for highest. It is only available in a pond in the [[Resort Area]] with a [[Super Rod]] in Platinum, where only Magikarp can be caught and range in levels anywhere from level 1 to 100.<br />
* Magikarp, as well as Gyarados, has been in all four regional [[Pokédex]]es.<br />
* Even though Magikarp is said to be the weakest Pokémon in existence, there are seven Pokémon weaker than it and one equal to it in terms of [[List of Pokémon by base stats|base stat average]].<br />
* Magikarp is one of three {{type2|Water}}s that cannot learn {{m|Surf}} (the others being {{p|Surskit}} and {{p|Wingull}}), as well as the only Water-type that cannot learn any Ice-type or Water-type [[move]]s.<br />
* Magikarp is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.<br />
* Magikarp shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Feebas}}. They are both known as the Fish Pokémon.<br />
* Even though it's listed as a freshwater Pokémon, Magikarp's abundant in oceans as well.<br />
* Magikarp takes the shortest time to hatch out of all Pokémon.<br />
* Every one of Magikarp's Pokédex entries talks about either its lack of strength, its tendency to {{m|Splash}}, or both. <br />
* Magikarp's FireRed Pokédex entry remarks on its lack of power and speed. While the power part is true, Magikarp in fact sports a base 80 speed stat, making it quite fast.<br />
* The Pokédex entries for Magikarp in Gold version and Platinum version contradict each other; Gold version says that Magikarp never jumps more than seven feet, whereas Platinum version states that it may jump over a mountain.<br />
*Magikarp is the only Pokémon that can learn attacking moves but can't get [[STAB]] on any of them.<br />
*Together with {{p|Pichu}} and {{p|Seedot}}, Magikarp is the easiest Pokémon to catch in {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, with only one loop necessary.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Magikarp is based on a legend about how carp that leapt over the Dragon Gate would become dragons. Several waterfalls and cataracts in China are believed to be the location of the Dragon Gate. This legend is an allegory of the drive and efforts needed to overcome obstacles. This may have inspired an element in Pokémon Snap, where after certain steps are taken, a Magikarp will splash it way into a waterfall where it evolves.<br />
<br />
Magikarp may also be based on Asian carps, which are easily frightened by disturbances in water and can jump 8-10 feet in the air. <br />
====Name origin====<br />
Magikarp's name is a combination of ''magic'' and ''{{wp|carp}}'' (this may be mocking the Magikarp as a species, as someone with 'magic' powers is generally thought to be quite powerful, which Magikarp is not). It may also the combination of ''Magi'', the three kings from the story of the {{wp|Nativity of Jesus|Nativity}}, and ''carp''. Its Japanese name is a combination of 鯉 ''{{wp|koi}}'', carp, and the English word ''king'', giving its name an ironic slant similar to its English name.<br />

<div>[[Image:Maxhoenn.PNG‎|thumb|right|200px|Max]]<br />
'''Max''' (Japanese: '''マサト''' ''Masato'') is a character of the day from ''[[AG049|Maxxed Out]]''. His name (both English and Japanese) and design are based on [[Max]]. His English voice actress is [[Amy Birnbaum]] and his Japanese voice actress is ''[[Romi Paku]]''.<br />
<br />
He started to comment how energetic [[May's Skitty]] was and that only a skilled Trainer can handle one like that. The blue-haired Max replied that he already knew that. [[Nurse Joy]] told Max to duke it out, making both Maxes confused, as she did not yet know that the two were named Max.<br />
<br />
The two started to bicker again but Joy soon broke it up, making blue-haired Max go down to the lake. Later, when May and Max were looking after a wild {{p|Surskit}}, brown-haired Max approaches them and another fight starts. {{Ash}} and [[Brock]] approach them, making the brown-haired Max spit another smart-aleck comment at his counterpart and starting another fight.<br />
<br />
Brock then says they shall release their Pokémon, and May and Ash agree. Blue-haired Max says he gets to see them every day, and that [[Norman|his father]] is a [[Gym Leader]], making the other Max impressed.<br />
<br />
May shows off Skitty to {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}. Soon thereafter, [[Team Rocket]] jumps from the bushes and surprises everyone. After their mecha explodes, leaving Team Rocket flying in the air, the two Maxes become friends. The brown-haired one intends to train his new friend {{p|Surskit}} hard, and one day become a [[Pokémon Trainer]].<br />

== A way to get Tangrowth at a low level ==<br />

It's possible to get a Tangrowth at level 2, right? All you need to do is hatch a Tangela, teach it Ancient Power, and feed it a Rare Candy or level it up and you have a level 2 Tangrowth. Should this be listed in the Trivia section or something? &lt;small&gt;- ''unsigned comment from {{u|Nidolord500}} ([[User talk:Nidolord500|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nidolord500|contribs]]){{ #if: 23:17, January 27, 2009 | &amp;#32;23:17, January 27, 2009 |}}''&lt;/small&gt;<br />
:No, this is a well known way to get Pokemon actually. Same way you can evolve Eevee into Leafeon and Glaceon really. [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 05:24, 28 January 2009 (UTC)<br />
::Any location, happiness, or move-evolving Pokémon can be gotten at level 2 (except Sudowoodo and Mr. Mime, since they have the incense prevos and Golbat because Zubat doesn't evolve until 22). You don't even need to ''teach'' it anything, just breed two a Tangela/Tangrowth with AncientPower with any Pokémon in its egg group with the move, and there you go.

:::Um, no. On Pokemon Platinum, there's a move tutor that teaches Ancient Power, so even if you can't breed 2 together, there's that Move Tutor. And you can't breed a Tengula to learn Ancient Power. This is the only way to get it at level 2 without hacking. Tengula and Swinub are the only 2 pokemon that can evolve at level 2 that has to learn a certain move to evolve. &lt;__&lt; &lt;small&gt;- ''unsigned comment from {{u|Nidolord500}} ([[User talk:Nidolord500|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nidolord500|contribs]]){{ #if: 05:05, 30 January 2009 | &amp;#32;05:05, 30 January 2009 |}}''&lt;/small&gt;<br />
::::...Wait, so you said &quot;no&quot; and then backed up the statement that you disagreed with? And yes, you can breed Tangela to learn AncientPower. Tangela + Tangela = Tangela.

:Uh, {{u|TTEchidna}}, you're forgetting {{p|Piloswine}}. {{p|Swinub}} doesn't evolve into Piloswine until it reaches [[level]] 33, and it's Piloswine that needs to know {{m|Ancientpower}} in order to evolve. Hence the lowest possible level one could see a {{p|Mamoswine}} at would be 6.<br />
<br />
:If you don't believe me about being able to get a level 6 Mamoswine, here's how to do it: First, breed Ancientpower onto a Swinub in a [[Generation III]] game (preferably {{v2|Emerald}}). Then, use Emerald's [[Pomeg glitch]] as often as it takes to level up the Swinub in the egg until it evolves, all without letting it hatch. After the Swinub inside the egg evolves, let the egg hatch; it'll be a level 5 Piloswine. [[Pal Park]] the Piloswine, then level it up once it reaches the [[Generation IV]] side of things. (You can also try the Pomeg glitch to get stuff such as a level 6 {{p|Magnezone}} and level 5s of {{p|Rhyperior}}, {{p|Electivire}}, {{p|Magmortar}}, {{p|Gallade}}, and {{p|Dusknoir}}.) --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 14:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)<br />

==Tangrowth's name== <br />
<br />
I know this is something small but Mojumbo is not how his name in Japanese would be said.

Opps, let me fix that, sorry about that. But yeah モジャンボ would not be pronounced mojumbo. {{unsigned|Goldlw1}}<br />
<br />
Nevermind, upon further investigation the Japanese decided to make ジャンボ jumbo even though it is pronounced jyanbo. I was guessing that it would be like Tangela which is mojara and is based on the same name. Oh well, sorry for the problem. {{unsigned|Goldlw1}}<br />

'''Jynx''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルージュラ''' ''Rougela'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ice|Psychic}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
She [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Smoochum}} starting at [[level]] 30.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Jynx is a humanoid Pokémon that resembles a bulky woman. Jynx wears a red gown that hides her feet, has white arms and purple hands. Jynx has a purple face, pink lips, saucer-like eyes and long blond hair. She seems to resemble a Nordic princess, as seen in various operas. Originally, her face was colored black, causing a {{pkmn|controversy}}.<br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Jynx is a female-only species with no male counterpart.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Jynx can use {{m|Psychic|telepathy}} to transfer visions of what they've seen into a another being's mind. In battle, Jynx have the power to {{m|Blizzard|control ice and snow}} and can also use physical force to some degree. <br />
<br />
Jynx is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Lovely Kiss}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]<br />
Jynx tend to prefer icy climates, such as caves in snowy mountains. In ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'', various Jynx are seen in [[Santa Claus|Santa]]'s toy factory.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />

<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[File:Jynx original design.png|thumb|left|Jynx in its original design in the anime, from [[EP250]], a banned episode of the anime]]<br />
[[File:Jynx anime.png|right|thumb|Jynx in the anime]]<br />
===Major Appearances===<br />
Jynx first appeared in ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]''. One of [[Santa Claus]]'s Jynx was separated from him. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} helped to return the Jynx to her owner.<br />
<br />
A [[Nurse Joy]] in [[EP250]] owned a Jynx, rather than a Chansey. In this banned episode, [[Brock]] almost kissed this Human Shape Pokémon during his sickly state.<br />
<br />
A Jynx was also used by a girl named [[Erica]] in the [[Pacifidlog Town]] Contest in ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy]]'' and ''[[AG116|Pacifidlog Jam]]''.<br />
<br />
A trio of Jynx sisters were in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''. These three Jynx were overly-protective towards their sister, a {{p|Smoochum}}. The Smoochum evolved into a Jynx at the end of the episode.<br />
<br />
===Minor Appearances===<br />
Jynx was also in a Pokémon stage show for ''[[EP090|Stage Fight]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Lorelei|Prima]] owns a Jynx. She used it to send [[Team Rocket]] flying in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]''.<br />
<br />
===Pokédex entries===<br />

{{Animedexbody|Holiday Hi-Jynx|Jynx|Ash's Pokédex|Jynx, the Human Shape Pokémon. This Pokémon has some very unusual powers. Its [[Signature move|special attack]] is the {{m|Lovely Kiss}}, which puts its opponent into a deep [[Status ailment#Sleep|sleep]].}}<br />

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
Jynx's most notable role is being under the ownership of [[Lorelei]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. Lorelei's Jynx is noted for having the ability to generate voodoo dolls out of ice using its {{m|Ice Beam}}. When Lorelei draws crosses on any part of the dolls using her lipstick, ice shackles form on the specified body parts of her targets, eventually freezing the victim over completely. Even after the victims are broken free, the freeze induces lasting numbness in the areas where it was applied. Both {{adv|Red}} and [[Sabrina]] suffered this condition and had to seek a cure atop [[Mt. Silver]] by bathing in the hotsprings there.<br />
<br />
Another ability of Lorelei's Jynx is revealed in the [[Sevii Islands]] saga: she can create a wispy band of ice around targets, with which Lorelei can use to track down using her powder case.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Before Generation IV, Jynx was the only Ice-type Pokémon that was able to learn {{m|Ice Punch}} by leveling up.<br />
* Jynx is one of the few Pokémon who naturally learn a [[move]] in a game in one generation, but then never learn it again in another generation; in this case, the move is {{m|Thrash}}, in Generation I. <br />
* Jynx and her pre-evolution, {{p|Smoochum}}, are the only Pokémon that learn {{m|Avalanche}} by leveling up.<br />
* Jynx, together with her pre-evolution {{p|Smoochum}}, are the only Pokémon that have the [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] {{t|Ice}}/{{t|Psychic}}.<br />
* Jynx's {{stat|Defense}} stat is the lowest of all fully evolved Ice-types.<br />
* Until the introduction of {{p|Glaceon}} in Generation IV, Jynx had the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of all {{t|Ice}} Pokémon.<br />
* As its Pokédex entries state that it speaks a language that sounds like human, the player, as a Pokémon, cannot understand anything of what it says in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 1|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]], which would make it appear that Pokémon cannot normally understand human speech. However this contradicts several other forms of [[canon]], such as the [[Pokémon anime]] and various {{pkmn|manga}} works where Pokémon are able to understand human speech, especially evident by [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Team Rocket's Meowth]].<br />

|}&lt;small&gt;Jynx's Japanese [[Generation II]] sprites.&lt;/small&gt;<br />
|}<br />
{{main|Pokémon controversy#Racism|Pokémon controversy}}<br />
Jynx originally bore a striking, but possibly coincidental, resemblance to entertainers in {{wp|blackface}}. A strong case can be made for Jynx being a parody of or homage to the Japanese {{wp|Ganguro}} and Yamanba fashion trends, which were extremely popular when Pokémon was first released, but it can't be denied that blackface-influenced characters have appeared elsewhere in anime and manga - examples can be found near the beginning of Osamu Tezuka's early graphic novel, {{wp|Metropolis (manga)|Metropolis}} and also can be found with Dragon Ball Z's Mr. Popo.<br />
<br />
As Pokémon became more popular in the US, this perceived similarity to a racist image from America's past offended some. In particular, it had offended children's book author {{wp|Carole Boston Weatherford}}, who accused Jynx of being a racist stereotype in an article titled &quot;Politically Incorrect Pokémon&quot; in the magazine ''Black World Today'', shortly after the anime episode ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'' aired. Episodes that contained Jynx in its original design were left unaired outside of Japan, including [[EP250]] and portions of ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly]]''. <br />
<br />
In response to this controversy, [[Nintendo]] changed Jynx's hands from dark blue to purple and its face from black to purple in Pokémon games, including in the English and international versions of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. Jynx has appeared since using its new design with no problems. However, in the [[Who's That Pokémon?]] section of ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'', Jynx appears with its original colorings.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
What Jynx is based on is a controversial topic within the fandom, although common interpretations are a Nordic woman (possibly {{wp|Hel (goddess)|Hel}}, goddess of the underworld), or ガン黒 ''{{wp|ganguro}}'', ''face-black''. Also, the fact that Jynx are depicted as Santa's helpers in the anime can be a proof that Jynx is based on {{wp|Zwarte Piet}}. Jynx also has the traits of a female opera singer, especially the iconic cartoon depiction of the {{wp|It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings| fat lady}}. It should also be noted that the third generation sprites depict it singing, especially the emerald sprite that animates it signing a high note.<br />
<br />
Jynx may also have origins in the Japanese spirits known as {{wp|Yuki Onna}} (who has no feet like Jynx) or {{wp|Yama Uba}}, the latter of which is described as always wearing a tattered red kimono and having whitish-blonde hair (all traits shared by Jynx).<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
A {{wp|jinx}} is a curse or hex of bad luck. ''Rougela'' appears to be a feminized version of ''[[wp:Rouge (cosmetics)|rouge]]'', a type of makeup.<br />

<div>==Redesign Date==<br />
The article says that Nintendo changed Jynx's design for Ruby/Sapphire. But... um... is it just me or did Gold/Silver already have the redesigned Jynx? Her lips are smaller, her face and hands are purple, and her arms are white, just like the redesigned version.<br />
<br />
==Gender==<br />
<br />
In Pokemon Silver Edition, I caught several male Jynx. So, umm, is this just going by Red/Blue/Yellow standards?<br />
-- [[User:Kektklik|Kektklik]] 12:51, 8 May 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:That sounds an awful lot like a glitch or a hack -- did you buy your game second-hand, or ever use a gameshark? Or maybe you game was a bootleg? [[User:Manga-in-a-bottle|Manga-in-a-bottle]] 13:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)<br />
::I know I didn't find any males in Gold. (And I spent a while looking since I didn't know they were only female back then.) --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]]&lt;/sup&gt; 15:12, 8 May 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Jynx's Feet ==<br />
<br />
This point probably isn't important but in EP090 (Stage Fight) Jynx is shown to have hairy feet - you can see them near the end of the episode when all of the Pokémon are dancing, kicking their legs/feet. Can this be confirmed? --&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009966;&quot;&gt;☆[[User:Woodland Mudkip|Woodland:M]] ☆&lt;/span&gt; 21:15, 8 August 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
It does have feet, big ones too, but not hairy--[[User:Kuki|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#b00000;&quot;&gt;Kuki&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:Kuki|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#2c40a4;&quot;&gt;Ta&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#049440;&quot;&gt;lk&lt;/span&gt;]] 21:24, 8 August 2008 (UTC)<br />
:It doesn't really matter that they're not hairy, but that's the only time Jynx has been shown to have feet when it's generally accepted that Jynx doesn't have any. It's not really a big point but it should probably be added to its physiology unless it's a mistake --&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009966;&quot;&gt;☆[[User:Woodland Mudkip|Woodland:M]] ☆&lt;/span&gt; 22:22, 8 August 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Mean With Envy ==<br />
From the controversy section: <br />
&quot;''This change was not reflected in the anime until much later, when Jynx appeared in Mean With Envy, an episode which could not be cut from airing due to its importance to the plot of the Advanced Generation series. '''Though appearing as black in the original Japanese, Jynx was recolored in the dub, causing a delay in the airing of the episode.''' Jynx has appeared since using its new design with no problems.&quot;''<br />
<br />
I don't watch the Japanese episodes, but wasn't she was purple in the Japanese version of that episode too? I remember people being very annoyed that the episodes aired late BECAUSE Jynx had already been fixed in them, even in the original airing, and Serebii also has pictures of the Japanese version of the episode and she's purple in them too. {{unsigned|Razzia}}<br />
:This is correct, [http://www.filb.de/?site=anime/eppics&amp;ep=ag115 here] are pics from the Japanese airing, Jynx is clearly purple. Someone please change this. --[[User:HoennMaster|&lt;font color=&quot;blue&quot;&gt;Hoenn&lt;/font&gt;]][[User talk:HoennMaster|&lt;font color=&quot;green&quot;&gt;Master&lt;/font&gt;]] 00:46, 20 October 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Vandalism?==<br />
In Pokemon Mystery Dungeon part, why is there odd symbols? Does Jynx really say that or is that vandalism? --[[User:PKFL 531|PKFL 531]] 22:02, 25 October 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Look in the trivia section of the article. [[User:Turtwig A|Turt]][[wig]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A]] '''''[[Special:Contributions/Turtwig_A|Contributions]]''''' '''''[[User talk:Turtwig A|Talk]]''''' 22:07, 25 October 2009 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Um....I know this will probably be taken as my opinion only by the more extremist of the community, but i'll say it anyways.<br />
<br />
Wouldn't some of Jynx be based on &quot;the fat lady?&quot; You know the one with a horned hat, spear, sheild and a golden chest plate you see in Opera? I'm pretty sure its singing has been mentioned somewhere, and it appears to be animated singing in its Emerald sprite. Its FR/LG Sprite seems to take a singing stance.<br />

that picture ain't pretty but it should convey the point. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 22:53, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:I believe the word you're looking for is &quot;Valkyrie&quot;. --[[User:PsychicRider|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#78C850;&quot;&gt;'''Psy'''&lt;/span&gt;]][[User talk:PsychicRider|&lt;sub style=&quot;color:#F85888;&quot;&gt;'''ライダー'''&lt;/sub&gt;]]''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#C4E673;&quot;&gt;'''☮'''&lt;/span&gt;]]'' 22:55, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
:: Yeah, the opera character is a Valkyrie if I read right. I changed the picture to something a little more pleasant. Its just I've kind of always put the two together, even as a kid. I'm surprised there was no mention of such a thing in Jynx origin. Many focus on the it being from a Japanese trend, or go to the racist thing and might over look the other things it could originate from. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 23:04, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::: Should I add the info on it possibly being based in some part on the &quot;fat lady&quot; aka Valkyrie Brünhilde? Or would that seem to opinionated/need some kind of pain in the butt citation? From experience I know a article could be full of uncited and/or opinionated things, but when I come around I get confronted and told off. I think this would be a welcomed addition, and might level out some of the negative origin. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 23:30, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::The problem I can see with it is simply this: would it be reasonable to believe that Jynx is based off of them? I'm not familiar with Japan, so the main question is whether they're well-known over there; enough so to be the origin for a Pokémon. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|You enter a poorly lit room...]] 23:53, 17 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I don't see why they wouldn't know of the Fat lady or the reference pretending to her in Opera and in cartoons. You have to remember that before the US had any influence in japan it was Europe mostly. I think the school girl uniforms are based on British sailor uniforms if I remember right. Then you have to take into account the Japanese love for '''Disney.''' '''DBZ''' which was made in the late 80's early 90's had three characters based on the '''Cinderella''' song '''&quot;Bibidi Babadi Boo.&quot;''' Also I think '''Bugs Bunny''' has crossed over there in his 50+ years along with the other '''Looney Tunes'''. If Disney never made a reference to the Fat lady then Looney Tunes would defiantly be the next best bet. Opera started in Italy if I am correct, and we can all think of two Italians that came from Japan and made Nintendo lots of money. If Nintendo could bank on '''Italian Plumbers''' as a mascot for a multi-billion dollar company, I'm sure they have been influenced by western culture. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 00:36, 18 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::: So....would there be any objections if i add this? I just don't want to add the info then have to fight for it tooth and nail with someone wanting citations or anything. I've had plenty of experience with that, mostly on wikipedia but it is still a pain. <br />
<br />
:::::: I'm still thinking of how to word it so the addition might not be done right away. I'm not sure if Valkyrie would be too vague or generic, or if the addition should be blunt and say Jynx appearance and behavior (look at the game sprite(s) in later gens) may be based of the stereotypical Fat lady that sings.

<br />
'''What is Ketamine?''' <br />
<br />
'''Slang or Street Names: Special K''', K, Vitamin K, Cat Valiums Ketamine is an injectable anesthetic that has been approved for both human and animal use in medical settings since 1970. About 90 percent of the ketamine legally sold today is intended for veterinary use.<br />
<br />
Ketamine is produced in liquid form or as a white powder that is often snorted or smoked with marijuana or tobacco products. In some cities (Boston, New Orleans, and Minneapolis/St. Paul, for example), ketamine is reportedly being injected intramuscularly. <br />
<br />
At higher doses, ketamine can cause delirium, amnesia, impaired motor function, high blood pressure, depression, and potentially fatal respiratory problems. <br />
Low-dose intoxication from ketamine results in impaired attention, learning ability, and memory.<br />

<br />
Yes, Ash pulls out a ball to recall Pikachu a few times once when his mom raises a question about pikachu being out of its ball, and again when it battles onyx.<br />
<br />
The Trainers use one of the balls Oak gives them, but the ball the Pokemon was in when they chose it is not taken.<br />
<br />
That's Why ash picked up 3 empty balls. They're just place holders until a actual trainer can be registered to that Pokemon. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 01:19, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

<br />
::Lots of things on here have never been explicitly pointed out or stated. Common sense and a good eye plays a lot in this.<br />
<br />
::A Pokeball is normally registered specifically to a Pokemon to a specific trainer. That's why a Trainer has to go to special places to change a pokemon's ball.<br />
<br />
::When Ash's Snorlax ball broke, he couldn't just recall it to any ball on his possession. A Trainer has to either go to a Center, or some kind of Pokemart (I forget if it was a rich lady with a Snubull or a Meowth who got a fancy ball for her pokemon) to have balls changed or upgraded in some way.<br />
<br />
::If those balls were permanently attached to those starters, then Ash would have no balls to pick up and find empty. Gary would have taken the ball holding his squirtle and left with his groupies. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 01:32, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== the EP001 Errors section needs some TLC ==<br />
<br />
could you remove the following erros from the EP001 article?<br />
<br />
*Professor Oak had all three Poké Balls that contained the starters when Ash went to get his starter. However, all three Trainers already got their Pokémon before Ash came, and presumably would be using those same Poké Balls to keep their starter in.<br />
*Professor Oak hands Ash his Pokédex and six Poké Balls despite the fact that, in the games, the player receives five. Also, Oak is handing him one more Poké Ball than he needs, as a Pokémon Trainer can only hold six Pokémon at one time.<br />
<br />
Being that those are just place holders, and the 6th ball is to replace them and register the starter to the trainer, those errors are obsolete. I would do it but I've edited that page to much for everyone's comfort.<br />

== Pokémon Power trivia ==<br />
<br />
The piece of inaccurate trivia you had restored on [[Arceus LV.X (Advent of Arceus 77)]] after I'd removed it listed that it was the first card with more than one {{TCG|Pokémon Power}}, of any sort. That is far from being the case. The first card with more than one Pokémon Power, regardless of power type, is [[Igglybuff (EX Crystal Guardians 21)]].<br />
<br />
You had cited that the Igglybuff had &quot;one Poké-BODY and one Poké-POWER&quot;, and citing the Arceus trivia as accurate because the Igglybuff in question didn't have &quot;two of either&quot;. Hate to break it to you, but the term &quot;Pokémon Power&quot; not only encompasses older-style Pokémon Powers, but also Poké-POWERs and Poké-BODies as well. Because Igglybuff has a Poké-BODY and a Poké-POWER, it most decidedly has two Pokémon Powers of any sort, a milestone you're trying to place on the Arceus in question.<br />
<br />
&lt;nowiki&gt;****&lt;/nowiki&gt;, the Arceus in question isn't even the first card to have two Pokémon Powers of the same type! [[Porygon-Z LV.X (Majestic Dawn 100)]] takes that crown with its two Poké-POWERs. About the only crown the Arceus in question ''can'' take is the first with two Poké-BODies. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== About your concerns ==<br />
<br />
I see where you're coming from, but Japan has been heavily influenced by Western Culture. They might not make multiple references to the fat lady like a American Cartoon (like in a cartoon you could have seen before cartoon network shoved all the good stuff out of the way), but I'm sure they've come across the reference. Its not so much the Valkries I believe Jynx to be based on some what, but the Fat lady. Look at Jynx clothes (are those considered clothes?) The other Pokémon have origins that are far stranger. Look at Golduck. One of its Origin creatures is a Platypus. While I've compared the two for as long as I've compared Jynx to the fat opera lady, it still would come off as weird to many people. Really the things Pokémon are based off of are hit and miss. I didn't see a real similarity between Blissy's hair and Nurse joy until I read the origin. The thing people chose to forget here and there is a lot of whats on this site is guess work. Until Psycho Rider lives up to their name, and holds one of the creators at gunpoint we have to guess.

'''Uxie''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ユクシー''' ''Yuxie'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]]. <br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
Uxie is the first member of the [[lake guardians]], the [[Sinnoh]] region's {{type2|Psychic}} legendary Pokémon [[legendary trio|trio]].<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Uxie is a small, gray, fairy-like Pokémon with two gray tails that are each encrusted with a red gem. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which make up the [[Red Chain]]. Uxie has a partially yellow face with another red gem encrusted into its forehead. Uxie appears to have a yellow helmet.<br />
<br />
Uxie always has its eyes closed due to the fact that it can wipe out the memory of those who look in its eyes.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Uxie is genderless.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
It can wipe out the memory of those whose eyes come in contact with its eyes. In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2, it is shown that Uxie can also create an illusion. Uxie is also the most intelligent of all Pokémon, having created all knowledge in the Pokémon universe. It was also shown in [[DP151]] that Uxie has the ability to teleport.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Uxie are very shy pokemon but will attack with force if threatened.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
Uxie lives in [[Lake Acuity]].<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[File:Mesprit Uxie anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Uxie in the anime]]<br />
A statue and silhouette of Uxie appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''.<br />
<br />
Uxie's &quot;soul&quot; appeared to Brock, much in the same way those of {{p|Mesprit}} and {{p|Azelf}} appeared to {{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}}, in ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''<br />
<br />
Uxie appeared in its physical form in [[DP151]], where it, along with Mesprit, came to [[Lake Valor]] after Azelf was captured. However, it was also captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]], but before it was captured, it used {{m|Future Sight}} with Mesprit, destroying her ship later on. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In [[DP152]], after breaking from their control with the help of [[Brock's Croagunk]] and [[Ash's Gliscor]], it helped in stopping [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{an|Dialga}} and {{an|Palkia}}.<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===[[Pokémon Adventures]]===<br />
{{adv|Platinum}} is sent to guard Uxie from [[Team Galactic]]. She was chosen because, fittingly, she is very knowledgeable when compared to the {{p|Mesprit|calm}} {{adv|Diamond}} or the {{p|Azelf|hyper}} {{adv|Pearl}}.<br />
<br />
==In the TCG==<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Despite being genderless in the main series games, Uxie is referred to as a male in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2]]. <br />
* Azelf's {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Pearl|s}} [[Pokédex]] entry mentions that Uxie, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}} emerged from the same {{pkmn|egg}}.<br />
* Uxie is the first legendary Pokémon that [[Brock]] has some sort of connection with in the anime.<br />
** Interestingly, both Uxie and Brock eyes naturally appear closed.<br />
* Uxie is the mascot of [[Poképédia]]. Poképédia's logo shows it with its eyes open.<br />
===Origin===<br />
Uxie is based after a {{wp|pixie}} or a {{wp|fairy}} and the color {{wp|yellow}}. Uxie and the rest of the trio could possibly have originated from the {{wp|Imperial Regalia of Japan}}, which are also called the Three Sacred Treasures. Uxie would be the {{wp|Yata no Kagami}}, which embodies wisdom and honesty.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Uxie's name may be a combination of 行く先 ''yukusaki'', future, 知識 ''chishiki'', knowledge, and {{wp|pixie}}. It could also come from ''you'' and ''pixie''.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Selfe - From ''self'' and ''Elfe'' (elf).<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Créhelf - From ''création'' (creation) and ''elfe'' (elf).<br />

'''Linoone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マッスグマ''' ''Massuguma'') is a {{type2|Normal}} [[Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Zigzagoon}} starting at [[level]] 20.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Linoone are little weasel/badger-like creatures. Their long bodies are like a weasel's, and their sharp elongated claws are like a badger's. They also have small sharp teeth that are efficiently used with their claws in hunting. There is an arrow on it head as well, referencing its straight movement.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
None.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Since Linoone have a keen sense of smell, they are able to locate and {{a|Pickup}} items while its trainer walks around.<br />
<br />
When the Generation IV games were introduced, Linoone was given another ability. Due to the fact that it loves berries more than almost anything else, it is a complete {{a|Gluttony|glutton}} when it comes to them.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Linoone are incredibly fast, but they aren't the best at cornering, so they typically run in a straight line. Linoone have an attraction to anything round, and will grab any orb-shaped object they see if given the chance. They often carry a snatched object in their expandable cheek pouches and deposit it in any of a number of secret stashes they keep on their territory.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]<br />

<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />

'''Damos''' (Japanese: '''ダモス''' ''Damos'') is a character from ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. His Japanese voice actor is 髙嶋政宏 ''Masahiro Takashima'' and his English voice actor is [[Dan Green]].<br />
<br />
Damos lived in ancient times, and gathered the [[Plates]] to heal {{an|Arceus}} after it injured itself saving the world from a meteor. Arceus loaned him the [[Jewel of Life]] in gratitude, but Damos and his minion, [[Marcus]], did not return it and instead attacked Arceus. Arceus caused the temple all three were in to collapse, leaving Damos's fate uncertain. <br />
<br />
Later, it is discovered that Marcus, not Damos, was the mastermind behind the betrayal when Ash and the group come back in time to set things right. With his help, they manage to stop Marcus's plan and he then uses his power to connect to the hearts of Pokémon to reach Arceus, allowing him to take the Jewel of Life from Ash and recover. He is last seen bidding Arceus good bye before Ash and company return to the future<br />

<br />
From About.com[http://parentingteens.about.com/cs/designerdrugs/l/blketamine2.htm]<br />
<br />
'''What is Ketamine?''' <br />
<br />
'''Slang or Street Names: Special K''', K, Vitamin K, Cat Valiums Ketamine is an injectable anesthetic that has been approved for both human and animal use in medical settings since 1970. About 90 percent of the ketamine legally sold today is intended for veterinary use.<br />
<br />
Ketamine is produced in liquid form or as a white powder that is often snorted or smoked with marijuana or tobacco products. In some cities (Boston, New Orleans, and Minneapolis/St. Paul, for example), ketamine is reportedly being injected intramuscularly. <br />
<br />
At higher doses, ketamine can cause delirium, amnesia, impaired motor function, high blood pressure, depression, and potentially fatal respiratory problems. <br />
Low-dose intoxication from ketamine results in impaired attention, learning ability, and memory.<br />

== So this doesn't turn to a edit war i'll say it here and not a undo summary ==<br />
<br />
Yes, Ash pulls out a ball to recall Pikachu a few times once when his mom raises a question about pikachu being out of its ball, and again when it battles onyx.<br />
<br />
The Trainers use one of the balls Oak gives them, but the ball the Pokemon was in when they chose it is not taken.<br />
<br />
That's Why ash picked up 3 empty balls. They're just place holders until a actual trainer can be registered to that Pokemon. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 01:19, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Hmmm.... is that ever actually stated though? You do make a good point though. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|You enter a poorly lit room...]] 01:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Lots of things on here have never been explicitly pointed out or stated. Common sense and a good eye plays a lot in this.<br />
<br />
::A Pokeball is normally registered specifically to a Pokemon to a specific trainer. That's why a Trainer has to go to special places to change a pokemon's ball.<br />
<br />
::When Ash's Snorlax ball broke, he couldn't just recall it to any ball on his possession. A Trainer has to either go to a Center, or some kind of Pokemart (I forget if it was a rich lady with a Snubull or a Meowth who got a fancy ball for her pokemon) to have balls changed or upgraded in some way.<br />
<br />
::If those balls were permanently attached to those starters, then Ash would have no balls to pick up and find empty. Gary would have taken the ball holding his squirtle and left with his groupies. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 01:32, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />

<br />
== the EP001 Errors section needs some TLC ==<br />
<br />
could you remove the following erros from the EP001 article?<br />
<br />
*Professor Oak had all three Poké Balls that contained the starters when Ash went to get his starter. However, all three Trainers already got their Pokémon before Ash came, and presumably would be using those same Poké Balls to keep their starter in.<br />
*Professor Oak hands Ash his Pokédex and six Poké Balls despite the fact that, in the games, the player receives five. Also, Oak is handing him one more Poké Ball than he needs, as a Pokémon Trainer can only hold six Pokémon at one time.<br />
<br />
Being that those are just place holders, and the 6th ball is to replace them and register the starter to the trainer, those errors are obsolete. I would do it but I've edited that page to much for everyone's comfort.<br />
<br />

== Pokémon Power trivia ==<br />
<br />
The piece of inaccurate trivia you had restored on [[Arceus LV.X (Advent of Arceus 77)]] after I'd removed it listed that it was the first card with more than one {{TCG|Pokémon Power}}, of any sort. That is far from being the case. The first card with more than one Pokémon Power, regardless of power type, is [[Igglybuff (EX Crystal Guardians 21)]].<br />
<br />
You had cited that the Igglybuff had &quot;one Poké-BODY and one Poké-POWER&quot;, and citing the Arceus trivia as accurate because the Igglybuff in question didn't have &quot;two of either&quot;. Hate to break it to you, but the term &quot;Pokémon Power&quot; not only encompasses older-style Pokémon Powers, but also Poké-POWERs and Poké-BODies as well. Because Igglybuff has a Poké-BODY and a Poké-POWER, it most decidedly has two Pokémon Powers of any sort, a milestone you're trying to place on the Arceus in question.<br />
<br />
&lt;nowiki&gt;****&lt;/nowiki&gt;, the Arceus in question isn't even the first card to have two Pokémon Powers of the same type! [[Porygon-Z LV.X (Majestic Dawn 100)]] takes that crown with its two Poké-POWERs. About the only crown the Arceus in question ''can'' take is the first with two Poké-BODies. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== About your concerns ==<br />
<br />
I see where you're coming from, but Japan has been heavily influenced by Western Culture. They might not make multiple references to the fat lady like a American Cartoon (like in a cartoon you could have seen before cartoon network shoved all the good stuff out of the way), but I'm sure they've come across the reference. Its not so much the Valkries I believe Jynx to be based on some what, but the Fat lady. Look at Jynx clothes (are those considered clothes?) The other Pokémon have origins that are far stranger. Look at Golduck. One of its Origin creatures is a Platypus. While I've compared the two for as long as I've compared Jynx to the fat opera lady, it still would come off as weird to many people. Really the things Pokémon are based off of are hit and miss. I didn't see a real similarity between Blissy's hair and Nurse joy until I read the origin. The thing people chose to forget here and there is a lot of whats on this site is guess work. Until Psycho Rider lives up to their name, and holds one of the creators at gunpoint we have to guess.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, the first puddle seen in the article is giratina, which has a shape like this http://gallery.bulbagarden.net/albums/userpics/11378/thumb_giratina.jpg for the second one, you can see dialga's face, with one of the dots acting as his eye, the third one looks like palkia's pearl mixed with his head.--[[User:M.vit|M.vit]] 19:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

I know ''I'' made up the name &quot;lake trio&quot; but I'm thinking that a better way to describe them would be legendary pixies. Plus, then they'd fit with the other three standard trios.

:What standard? Beasts, birds, golems, dragons, fine, that's a standard...and then there's the weather trio. They don't have a standard, thus break any standard one would have. Everyone calls them the lake trio anyway. Besides being sprite-like (as in fae, not pixel), it's what they have in common that's the most blaringly obvious. Change 'lake' and you'd have to change 'weather'...and the only thing they have in common is the Bible. And we {{tt|cannot|under, like, ANY circumstance}} call them that. Lake trio is fine. ...It's also shorter. You know how people in this fandom like their short hand.

Whereas I see no resemblance to the dragon trio, nor any significance to the overall shape of the puddles, I have noticed something about the dots in the puddles. In all three, there appears to be a sort of triforce made up of two dots and the respective Pokemon in the cave. However, the corner of the triangle in which the Pokemon appears is different between the three of them. Does this make sense or seem at all significant? {{unsigned|Skaisdead}}<br />
:&quot;As seen in the pictures below, the two circles in each of the Pokémon's caves are the relative positions of the other two, although the meaning of the shapes of the puddles is unknown.&quot; The positioning is based on the lakes' locations in Sinnoh.

== A Parallel between the lake trios and Odin, Vé and Vili ==<br />
<br />
I was reading up on the god Odin (father of Thor) after seeing a episode of SHS on CN. Well it turns out that Odin has 2 brothers. Now granted this is from Wikipedia, and I've yet to google any more into this, I think its interesting how much Odin and his brothers Parallel Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. To the first human couple, Ask and Embla, Odin gave soul and life; Vili gave wit (intelligence) and sense of touch; and Vé gave countenance (appearance, facial expression), speech, hearing, and sight. So should this be mentioned in this article and/or their individual articles? [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 02:26, 9 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Should I just add this info or what? Odin and his brothers represent something that is apart of humanity, just like the lake trio. Plus its not uncommon for there to be multiple counterparts to mythological deities. The article already mentions Athena/Minerva, Poseidon/Neptune, and Zeus/Jupiter, and the {{wp|Vili}} makes a similar mention so I think that's covered.

== Mean With Envy ==<br />
From the controversy section: <br />
&quot;''This change was not reflected in the anime until much later, when Jynx appeared in Mean With Envy, an episode which could not be cut from airing due to its importance to the plot of the Advanced Generation series.

Jynx has appeared since using its new design with no problems.&quot;''<br />
<br />
I don't watch the Japanese episodes, but wasn't she was purple in the Japanese version of that episode too? I remember people being very annoyed that the episodes aired late BECAUSE Jynx had already been fixed in them, even in the original airing, and Serebii also has pictures of the Japanese version of the episode and she's purple in them too. {{unsigned|Razzia}}<br />

::::: I don't see why they wouldn't know of the Fat lady or the reference pretending to her in Opera and in cartoons.

Then you have to take into account the Japanese love for '''Disney.''' '''DBZ''' which was made in the late 80's early 90's had three characters based on the '''Cinderella''' song '''&quot;Bibidi Babadi Boo.&quot;''' Also I think '''Bugs Bunny''' has crossed over there in his 50+ years along with the other '''Looney Tunes'''. If Disney never made a reference to the Fat lady then Looney Tunes would defiantly be the next best bet. Opera started in Italy if I am correct, and we can all think of two Italians that came from Japan and made Nintendo lots of money. If Nintendo could bank on '''Italian Plumbers''' as a mascot for a multi-billion dollar company, I'm sure they have been influenced by western culture.

<div>==Redesign Date==<br />
The article says that Nintendo changed Jynx's design for Ruby/Sapphire. But... um... is it just me or did Gold/Silver already have the redesigned Jynx? Her lips are smaller, her face and hands are purple, and her arms are white, just like the redesigned version.<br />
<br />
==Gender==<br />
<br />
In Pokemon Silver Edition, I caught several male Jynx. So, umm, is this just going by Red/Blue/Yellow standards?<br />

== Jynx's Feet ==<br />
<br />
This point probably isn't important but in EP090 (Stage Fight) Jynx is shown to have hairy feet - you can see them near the end of the episode when all of the Pokémon are dancing, kicking their legs/feet. Can this be confirmed? --&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009966;&quot;&gt;☆[[User:Woodland Mudkip|Woodland:M]] ☆&lt;/span&gt; 21:15, 8 August 2008 (UTC)<br />

== Mean With Envy ==<br />
From the controversy section: <br />
&quot;''This change was not reflected in the anime until much later, when Jynx appeared in Mean With Envy, an episode which could not be cut from airing due to its importance to the plot of the Advanced Generation series. '''Though appearing as black in the original Japanese, Jynx was recolored in the dub, causing a delay in the airing of the episode.''' Jynx has appeared since using its new design with no problems.&quot;''<br />
<br />
I don't watch the Japanese episodes, but wasn't she was purple in the Japanese version of that episode too? I remember people being very annoyed that the episodes aired late BECAUSE Jynx had already been fixed in them, even in the original airing, and Serebii also has pictures of the Japanese version of the episode and she's purple in them too. {{unsigned|Razzia}}<br />
:This is correct, [http://www.filb.de/?site=anime/eppics&amp;ep=ag115 here] are pics from the Japanese airing, Jynx is clearly purple.

:It doesn't really matter that they're not hairy, but that's the only time Jynx has been shown to have feet when it's generally accepted that Jynx doesn't have any.

== Mean With Envy ==<br />
From the controversy section: <br />
&quot;''This change was not reflected in the anime until much later, when Jynx appeared in Mean With Envy, an episode which could not be cut from airing due to its importance to the plot of the Advanced Generation series. '''Though appearing as black in the original Japanese, Jynx was recolored in the dub, causing a delay in the airing of the episode.''' Jynx has appeared since using its new design with no problems.&quot;''<br />
<br />
I don't watch the Japanese episodes, but wasn't she was purple in the Japanese version of that episode too? I remember people being very annoyed that the episodes aired late BECAUSE Jynx had already been fixed in them, even in the original airing, and Serebii also has pictures of the Japanese version of the episode and she's purple in them too. {{unsigned|Razzia}}<br />
:This is correct, [http://www.filb.de/?site=anime/eppics&amp;ep=ag115 here] are pics from the Japanese airing, Jynx is clearly purple.

Um....I know this will probably be taken as my opinion only by the more extremist of the community, but i'll say it anyways.<br />
<br />
Wouldn't some of Jynx be based on &quot;the fat lady?&quot; You know the one with a horned hat, spear, sheild and a golden chest plate you see in Opera? I'm pretty sure its singing has been mentioned somewhere, and it appears to be animated singing in its Emerald sprite. Its FR/LG Sprite seems to take a singing stance.<br />

[[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 22:53, 17 November 2009 (UTC)</div>Yami Takashihttp://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Lake_guardians&diff=935908Lake guardians2009-11-17T22:04:21Z<p>Yami Takashi: added info that builds onto how they are equated to Greek/Roman gods. In Norse Mythology Odin, Vili and Vé give Ask and Embla gifts similar to those the trio represent. Re-word if needed</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Image:LakeTrio.gif|thumb|right|Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf.]]<br />
The '''lake guardians''', sometimes referred to as the '''lake trio''' or the '''legendary pixies''', is a term used to describe the [[legendary trio]] residing in the three lakes of [[Sinnoh]]: {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. They are meant to represent knowledge, emotion, and willpower, respectively. They are based off of the {{wp|Imperial Regalia of Japan}}: the {{wp|Yata no Kagami}} (wisdom), {{wp|Yasakani no Magatama}} (benevolence), and {{wp|Kusanagi}} (valor).<br />
<br />
Unlike previous trios, all three of the lake trio are of a single type, the {{type2|Psychic}}, though like the others, they share an [[ability]]: {{a|Levitate}}. According to [[Sinnoh myths|legend]], when {{p|Arceus}} created the universe it created Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, and therefore is believed to be their [[Trio master|master]]. According to one of Azelf's Pokédex entries, all three of them were born from the same egg.<br />
<br />
It is interesting to note that each of the members of the lake trio has one of the qualities of the [[wikipedia:Abrahamic God|Abrahamic God]]: Uxie is omniscient, Mesprit is omnipresent, and Azelf is omnipotent. They could also be equated to, respectively, the Greek/Roman deities of {{wp|Athena}}/{{wp|Minerva}}, {{wp|Poseidon}}/[[wp:Neptune (mythology)|Neptune]], and {{wp|Zeus}}/[[wp:Jupiter (mythology)|Jupiter]]. A parallel for the Trio rest within {{wp|Norse Mythology}}. {{wp|Odin}} along with his brothers {{wp|Vili and Vé}} bestow upon {{wp|Ask and Embala}} various corporeal and spiritual gifts similar to those the Trio represent. Odin gave soul and life; Vili gave wit (intelligence) and sense of touch; and Vé gave countenance (appearance, facial expression), speech, hearing, and sight. It should also be noted that parts of their name come from fantasy creatures, {{wp|pixie}}s, {{wp|sprite}}s and {{wp|elf|elves}}, respectively. The other parts of their names come from pronouns: you ('''U'''xie), me ('''Me'''sprit), and us ('''Az'''elf).<br />
<br />
The members of the lake trio are tied for the lightest legendary Pokémon, and, tied with {{p|Rotom}}, are second for the lightest of all Pokémon (after {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Haunter}}).<br />

===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl &amp; Platinum===<br />
The three pixies are obtainable in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum after the defeat of [[Team Galactic]] at [[Mt. Coronet]]. Uxie resides at the northern tip of Sinnoh, [[Acuity Cavern]]; Mesprit, after being encountered in [[Verity Cavern]], will roam throughout Sinnoh; and Azelf sits at the mid-eastern part of Sinnoh, sitting in [[Valor Cavern]].<br />

&lt;/gallery&gt;<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[File:Mesprit Azelf Uxie anime.png|thumb|250px|In the anime]]<br />
All three first appeared in forms similar to ''souls''. Mesprit appeared to {{an|Dawn}} during the start of her journey in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'', Azelf appeared to {{Ash}} during the duration of the [[Wallace Cup]] in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and Uxie appeared to Brock while he was looking for a [[berry]] in ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''. Due to these encounters, all three established a connection to the human they each met.<br />
<br />
They appeared in their physical forms for the first time in [[DP151]], wherein, after being hired by [[Team Galactic]], [[J]] was able to capture all three of them. Team Galactic was then able to control them using red gems. With their power, [[Cyrus]] was able to summon {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} during [[DP152|the next episode]]. <br />
<br />
When the gems were broken by {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, the three were set free from Team Galactic's control. They then helped Ash and his friends stop the effects of summoning Dialga and Palkia.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* As seen in the pictures above, the two circles in each of the Pokémon's caves are the relative positions of the other two, although the meaning of the shapes of the puddles is unknown. They could be there to show where the other members are located on the overview of the [[Sinnoh]] region, though.<br />
* The lake trio is the only trio whose members are all the same type. However, the [[legendary birds]] and the [[dragon trio]] share secondary types.<br />
* The lake trio are the first set of [[legendary Pokémon]] since the legendary birds to have their names changed for the English language versions of the game - from Yuxie, Emrit, and Agnome to Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf.<br />
* The lake trio helps the player through the [[Distortion World]] in Pokémon {{v|Platinum}}.<br />
* The lake trio contains the three {{wp|subtractive colors}} of yellow (Uxie), magenta (Mesprit) and cyan (Azelf).<br />
** In addition; they share the same main colors with {{p|Cresselia}}.<br />
* The trio's encounter music is a different version of their cavern music.<br />
* None of the lake trio can learn [[HM]] moves.<br />
* Each member of the lake trio has appeared to one of the three current main characters of the {{pkmn|anime}}:<br />
** Mesprit appeared to {{an|Dawn}}, highlighting her ability to understand what Pokémon feel, in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage]]''.<br />
** Azelf appeared to {{Ash}}, highlighting his courageous actions without fear of his own harm, in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals]]''.<br />
** Uxie appeared to [[Brock]], highlighting his superior knowledge of Pokémon to his companions, in ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''.<br />
**Coincidentally, the genders of the three main characters are parallel to the Lake trio's genders in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]].<br />

Sorry for the misunderstanding, the first puddle seen in the article is giratina, which has a shape like this http://gallery.bulbagarden.net/albums/userpics/11378/thumb_giratina.jpg for the second one, you can see dialga's face, with one of the dots acting as his eye, the third one looks like palkia's pearl mixed with his head.--[[User:M.vit|M.vit]] 19:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

<br />
I know ''I'' made up the name &quot;lake trio&quot; but I'm thinking that a better way to describe them would be legendary pixies. Plus, then they'd fit with the other three standard trios.

:What standard? Beasts, birds, golems, dragons, fine, that's a standard...and then there's the weather trio. They don't have a standard, thus break any standard one would have. Everyone calls them the lake trio anyway. Besides being sprite-like (as in fae, not pixel), it's what they have in common that's the most blaringly obvious. Change 'lake' and you'd have to change 'weather'...and the only thing they have in common is the Bible. And we {{tt|cannot|under, like, ANY circumstance}} call them that. Lake trio is fine. ...It's also shorter. You know how people in this fandom like their short hand.

Whereas I see no resemblance to the dragon trio, nor any significance to the overall shape of the puddles, I have noticed something about the dots in the puddles. In all three, there appears to be a sort of triforce made up of two dots and the respective Pokemon in the cave. However, the corner of the triangle in which the Pokemon appears is different between the three of them. Does this make sense or seem at all significant? {{unsigned|Skaisdead}}<br />

== A Parallel between the lake trios and Odin, Vé and Vili ==<br />
<br />
I was reading up on the god Odin (father of Thor) after seeing a episode of SHS on CN. Well it turns out that Odin has 2 brothers. Now granted this is from Wikipedia, and I've yet to google any more into this, I think its interesting how much Odin and his brothers Parallel Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. To the first human couple, Ask and Embla, Odin gave soul and life; Vili gave wit (intelligence) and sense of touch; and Vé gave countenance (appearance, facial expression), speech, hearing, and sight. So should this be mentioned in this article and/or their individual articles? [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 02:26, 9 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Should I just add this info or what? Odin and his brothers represent something that is apart of humanity, just like the lake trio. Plus its not uncommon for there to be multiple counterparts to mythological deities. The article already mentions Athena/Minerva, Poseidon/Neptune, and Zeus/Jupiter, and the {{wp|Vili}} makes a similar mention so I think that's covered.

'''Miltank''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミルタンク''' ''Miltank'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Miltank is a mostly pink colored bipedal cow with small horns and a long tail with a black ball in the end. She has a cream colored belly with four udders. She also has black spots on its back and a black &quot;hood.&quot;<br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Miltank is a female-only species. Its male counterpart is {{p|Tauros}}.<br />
<br />
===Special abilities===<br />
Miltank is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Milk Drink}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Unlike Tauros, Miltank are much more placid Pokémon and spend most of their time eating and digesting grass and other plants. However, they also possess a stubborn streak that may be unwilling to comply if they don't receive the proper training required. When properly trained, they can be a very useful asset, both in milking and battling.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Miltank is the only [[gender|female-only]] Pokémon that had its male counterpart, {{p|Tauros}}, introduced in a different [[Generation I|generation]].<br />
===Origin===<br />
Miltank is based on female {{wp|cattle}}. It shares many traits with jersey cattle, a kind of dairy cow.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Miltank's name is a combination of ''{{wp|milk}}'' and ''tank'', a storage container for liquid. The ''tank'' part of Miltank's name could also refer to her tank-like defense stats.<br />

'''Tauros''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケンタロス''' ''Kentauros'') is a {{type2|Normal}} [[Pokémon]]. <br />
<br />
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Tauros is a three-tailed brown bull with a dark brown mane, silver-colored horns and three silver studs on his forehead.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Tauros is a male-only species. The female counterpart is {{p|Miltank}}.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Tauros are violent, rowdy Pokémon that are able to whip themselves into a frenzy using their three-pronged tail. They are unable to stop themselves once they charge. Like most Normal types, Tauros can learn many different types of attacks.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Tauros are rowdy Pokémon; once they've started a rampage they will not stop until they hit something. They increase their will to fight by whipping themselves with their three tails. They live and travel in herds with the herd's protector probably leading the others. Tauros are also known to lock horns with each other in battle and they usually take pride in their battle-scarred horns. When there are no opponents to battle, Tauros will charge at trees to satisfy their need for a challenge and calm themselves.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]<br />
Tauros are rarely found in the wild. However, the [[Kanto Safari Zone]] has many herds, and more appear in expansive, grassy meadows found in the western [[Johto]] region, among other areas.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />

==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Ash's Tauros.jpg|thumb|[[Ash's Tauros]]]]<br />
===Major Appearances===<br />
====[[Ash's Tauros]]====<br />
{{Ash}} captured 30 of these Wild Bull Pokémon in [[EP035]], which was banned in North America, leading to confusion for some. The first time Ash ever used any of his Tauros in a battle was against {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] in ''[[EP111|Hello Pummelo]]''.<br />
<br />
====Other====<br />
[[Ethan]] used Tauros to pull his stagecoach in ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]''.<br />
<br />
Many Tauros were seen in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'' in [[Palmpona]] Town. Ash brought his from Oak's for this occasion as well, but sent it back soon after.<br />
<br />
===Minor Appearances===<br />
Tauros first appeared briefly in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the Laramie farm.<br />
<br />
A Tauros is used by one of the students of [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] in the first leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.<br />
<br />
A group of Tauros also appeared in [[DP140]].<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Tauros is the only [[gender|male-only]] Pokémon that had its female counterpart, {{p|Milktank}}, introduced in a different [[Generation II|generation]].<br />
*Tauros is one of the few [[Generation I]] Pokémon that have no evolutionary relatives, along with {{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, {{p|Lapras}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}}, and {{p|Ditto}}.<br />
*Tauros is the only Pokémon able to use {{m|Horn Attack}} that receives [[STAB]] from it.<br />
*Despite Tauros's large muscular build, his best stat is neither Attack nor Defense, but Speed.<br />
*Tauros has often been considered the hardest Pokémon to obtain in the [[Generation I]] games. This is probably due to the fact that he is found only in the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] during these games, his extreme rarity in that area, and because, unlike other Safari Zone-exclusive Pokémon, he isn't available in other locations or buyable through the [[Rocket Game Corner|Game Corner]].<br />
*Even though Tauros is based on a bovine, he has single-toed hooves like a horse.<br />
===Origin===<br />
Tauros is most likely based on a bull or a {{wp|bison}}.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Tauros's name is an abbreviation of its Japanese name, ''Kentauros'', which is comes from {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} Κένταυρος, {{wp|Centaur}}. It could also be a misspelling of ''{{wp|Centaurus}}''.<br />
<br />
It is worth noting that ''taurus'', Latin for {{wp|bull}}, is also the name of {{wp|Taurus (constellation)|another constellation}}.<br />

-Possibly better names for the [[lake trio|lake]] and [[weather trio]]s and [[Dialga]]/[[Palkia]]/[[Giratina]] (note that each of these guys have a similar look like all trios [these have a similar mouth] and share a naming system [like all trios except the weather trio]): Legendary fairies (maybe pixies/sprites/spirits?), legendary ancients, and legendary dragons (or something that involves dimensions). &lt;br&gt;<br />
<br />
-I agree with several articles saying [[Rayquaza]] is the internal leader/mediator of the weather trio, especially since it is more powerful that the other 2. &lt;br&gt;<br />
<br />
-I think maybe [[Arceus]] can be considered the leader of both the fairies and dragons. This would fit since it is so powerful. &lt;br&gt;<br />
<br />
-I don't think the weather/dimensional trios can be considered true trios, since they break some patterns (Weather - not all are equally powerful; internal leadership; don't share a naming system; they look similar but are not in the same, say, &quot;family&quot;; while other trios would typically share the same stance (flying, all fours, bipedal, etc.), these do not; Dimensional - not all together in 'dex listings; stance thing). Also, perhaps one could say each has a legendary that sort of opposes what they represent? The weather trio all represent a part of the Earth, whereas [[Deoxys]] is an extra-terrestrial being, and the dimensional trio each represent a dimension of reality, whereas [[Darkrai]] represents dreams. So perhaps these guys can be seen as &quot;leader&quot; (well, antithesis) to these trios. &lt;br&gt;<br />

== Merging the trio pages ==<br />
<br />
I think all of the trio pages should be merged into this article. Most are very short and would fit under their own headings in this article. At the very least, [[trio master]] should be merged with this article. Thoughts? --[[User:Momru|Momru]] 16:29, 11 May 2007 (UTC)<br />

== Other Possible Groupings ==<br />
<br />
;Celebi (Prayer)<br />
;Jirachi (Wish)<br />
*&lt;small&gt;This is also hinted at when Jirachi replaced Celebi on the bonus disc; Celebi's wish-granting seems to be the benevolent kind that gods do, Jirachi's seem to be the literal, malevolent kind that demons/genies do&lt;/small&gt;<br />
<br />
;Shaymin (Nature)<br />
;Rotom (Technology)<br />
<br />
;Regigigas (Pangaea)<br />
;Manaphy (Panlassa)<br />

<br />
:::True, but that also means that not all legendaries must appear in the exact same circumstances, and Rotom still has the traditional &quot;legendary pokemon&quot; theme. While Rotom may corrupt technology, it is still drawn to it - just like how Lugia is drawn to the sea, while its duty in the movie is to depower it.[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 19:12, 1 July 2008 (UTC)<br />

== Pics ==<br />
<br />
Hey, has anyone noticed how the trio pics on this site are (no offense) COMPLETELY PATHETIC?!?! I say someone ask Aragornbird (the webmaster on Arkeis.com) to make some trio pics. Those things are terrible! {{User|Giratina's Embodiment}}<br />

== Other Possible Groupings Part II ==<br />
<br />
I think you should extend those to full trio ideas, rather than just duo such. I would do at least one:<br />
Mew/Celebi/Jirachi ('Cute' trio)<br />
Also, while we're on the talk of 'cute' legends, I agree with whoever in Terminia put up a Manaphy/Phione pair on the duos page. I need to get to that right now. What in the name of Majora put brains in that guy? (Sorry, that's a compliment). [[User:Giratina&amp;#39;s Embodiment|Giratina&amp;#39;s Embodiment]] 23:54, 1 November 2008 (UTC)<br />

== Pics Part II ==<br />
<br />
Okay, I have an idea. I'm gonna talk to aragornbird, and if he agrees, how about we ''add'' the pics rather than changed to them?

== Naming Ideas ==<br />
<br />
I think that these trios ''need better names!'' for example;<br />
G/K/R: Wheather Trio? Bad Name. Mabye change to Legendary Earthmasters? Or Super-Ancients, I like that one.<br />
U/M/A: Lake Trio? Again, bad name. Try Lake Spirits, or Legendary Spirits.<br />
D/P/G: Dragon Trio? Not to bad, but I like that Universal Trio one. Or Legendary Universals.<br />

<br />
Good point, but could we at least throw in alternate names for them, like (using dragon trio as example)<br />
<br />
Dragon trio is the term used to describe the trio of Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina. They are also known as the Universal Trio.<br />

Whatever. I'm just gonna specify what my names meant.<br />
<br />
Earthmasters: This trio controls the condition of the Earth. Super-Ancients: They are ancient Pokémon.<br />
<br />
Lake Spirits: This trio's member's all live in lakes in all games they appear in, and M/A are seen as spirits in the anime. Legendary Spirits: latter of previous explanation.<br />
<br />

Should there be some mention in the Physiology section about how it looks like it has a open jacket on? The pictures on the article do little to show it, except tracy's Scyher. Here are some images I found. Some anime and non anime depictions of Scyther. You can clearly see a collar like a jacket has, and at different angles it appears like its chest has a green jacket wrapped around it. So should this be mentioned, discussed or what? I won't put this in the article unless it seems like a viable addition.<br />

== Name... ==<br />

I know ''I'' made up the name &quot;lake trio&quot; but I'm thinking that a better way to describe them would be legendary pixies. Plus, then they'd fit with the other three standard trios.

:What standard? Beasts, birds, golems, dragons, fine, that's a standard...and then there's the weather trio. They don't have a standard, thus break any standard one would have. Everyone calls them the lake trio anyway. Besides being sprite-like (as in fae, not pixel), it's what they have in common that's the most blaringly obvious. Change 'lake' and you'd have to change 'weather'...and the only thing they have in common is the Bible. And we {{tt|cannot|under, like, ANY circumstance}} call them that. Lake trio is fine. ...It's also shorter. You know how people in this fandom like their short hand.

Whereas I see no resemblance to the dragon trio, nor any significance to the overall shape of the puddles, I have noticed something about the dots in the puddles.

== A Parallel between the lake trios and Odin, Ve and Vili ==<br />
<br />
I was reading up on the god Odin (father of Thor) after seeing a episode of SHS on CN. Well it turns out that Odin has 2 brothers. Now granted this is from Wikipedia, and I've yet to google any more into this, I think its interesting how much Odin and his brothers Parallel Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. To the first human couple, Ask and Embla, Odin gave soul and life; Vili gave wit (intelligence) and sense of touch; and Ve gave countenance (appearance, facial expression), speech, hearing, and sight.

'''Ditto''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタモン''' ''Metamon'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon. <br />
<br />
Ditto uses the move {{m|Transform}} to copy the opponent's moves, types, form, and non-HP stats. It is sought out for its ability to [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] with any Pokémon other than the Pokémon in the {{egg|No eggs}} group, including some genderless ones.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
In its natural state, Ditto is a purplish gelatinous blob with vestigial facial features. However, it can take the form of anything, even inanimate objects.<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Ditto is a genderless species.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Ditto is capable of {{m|transform}}ing in to an an exact replica of any other Pokémon (an ability that is also shared with {{p|Mew}}), or indeed any physical object. However, if Ditto tries to transform into something based on memory, it may get some of the details wrong. Ditto will also be unable to remain in a transformed state if it starts laughing. Frequently, a Ditto appears that can't transform its face. This fact is seen in the anime, as well as in [[Pokémon Snap]] (in which several Ditto are transformed into {{p|Bulbasaur}}), and {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} (in which, during the [[Veilstone Game Corner|Game Corner]] [[slot machine]] game, a {{p|Clefairy}} with a Ditto's face will occasionally appear instead of a real Clefairy). In rare cases it will lack the ability to increase or decrease in size, thus rather than creating exact duplicates, it will create (usually) miniature versions. Ditto can not mimic the strength of another Pokémon. Ditto's ability to breed with any non-legendary Pokémon is also useful for creating Pokémon eggs of the more rare Pokémon that it may be difficult to get a mate for, such as the [[starter Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Ditto's primary defense mechanism is its ability to rearrange its cellular structure. This permits it to transform into essentially any other physical object. When two Ditto meet in the wild, they will attempt to transform into each other. This tendency makes Ditto a unique Pokémon in battle, as it will adapt the form and abilities of its foe. Ditto is best able to transform into something if it has a model to work from. Although Ditto can transform via memory, it has a tendency to forget important details, particularly with its foe's face.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]<br />
Ditto live in very diverse habitats, the most common being caves and forested areas. However, Ditto are never far from civilization or people. There have even been sightings of Ditto in places such as the Pokémon Mansion.<br />
<br />
===Diet===<br />
{{main|Pokémon food}}<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:DittosMysteriousMansion.gif|right|thumb|Ditto in the anime]]<br />
===Major Appearances===<br />
Ditto first appeared in ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]''. [[Duplica]] and her {{TP|Duplica|Ditto}} used to perform for people, but the two hadn't had an audience since people saw that Ditto couldn't change its face. Ditto fixed that problem near the end of the episode, when captured by [[Team Rocket]]. Duplica found another Ditto sometime before ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]'' that she named Mini-Dit. This second Ditto could transform into an exact mirror image of anything, but it couldn't change its size.<br />
<br />
In ''[[EP111|Hello Pummelo]]'', {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] owns a Ditto and uses it to fight [[Ash's Pikachu]]. After the battle with Drake's Ditto, Pikachu came out the victor.<br />
<br />
===Minor Appearances===<br />
A Ditto was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.<br />
<br />
Ditto was also owned by a member of [[Team Magma]] named [[Brodie]], who debuted in ''[[AG083|Unfair Weather Friends]]''.<br />
<br />

{{Animedexbody|EP037|Ditto|Ash's Pokédex|Ditto, a Transform Pokémon. It is able to rearrange the cells of its body and assume any form. Its only [[Move|attack]] is {{m|Transform}}.}}<br />
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
Ditto is one of the members on {{Special|Blue}}'s team in [[Pokémon Special]]. As a master of transformation, Blue uses Ditto extensively in her schemes, such as morphing over her face to disguise her appearance, camouflaging into its background for subterfuge, as well as forming a protective shield with Blue's umbrella.<br />
<br />
Ditto is seen later used by [[Team Rocket]], to lure {{Special|Crystal}} and [[Eusine]] away from {{p|Suicune}}, and smother them when discovered. It was, however, defeated by Crystal's {{p|Hitmonchan}}.<br />
<br />
Duplica and her Ditto are seen in [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. Finding Ditto appealing, [[Misty]] decides to capture one of her own, but the plan is called off when {{p|Pikachu}} goes missing. Ditto also featured in a minicomic in which it transforms into {{Ash}}, harasses Misty and thereby getting Ash into a lot of pain.<br />
<br />
Ditto is also featured in ''[[Pokémon Zensho]]'' under the ownership of {{OBP|Satoshi|Zensho}}.<br />
<br />
==In the TCG==<br />
{{main|Ditto (TCG)}}<br />
<br />
==Other appearances==<br />
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===<br />
[[Image:Ditto Melee.png|right|thumb|A screenshot of Ditto in Melee]]<br />
Ditto was originally intended to be one of the Pokémon randomly released from a [[Poké Ball]]. It would have transformed into a copy of the user's character and aided them in battle. However, processing problems forced its removal before the game's release. Ditto can be still be unlocked through the debug menu (which is only accessible through the use of Action Replay), though it does not do anything other than give 7-8% damage to those who touch it.<br />
<br />
As for its official status, Ditto only appears as a random trophy and as a cameo in the Tournament Mode menu. In Winner Out or Loser Out tournaments, holding down L and R and pressing A will give the player a random character and color. The usual character image will instead be taken by a picture of Ditto.<br />
<br />
====Trophy information====<br />
Every Ditto has the ability to copy a Pokémon's entire cell structure in an instant and become its exact replica. They're terrible at remembering techniques, but when they use {{m|Transform}}, they temporarily learn all of their foe's moves. If a Ditto starts to laugh, it weakens and can't hold its transformation.<br />
<br />
==Game data==<br />
===NPC appearances===<br />
*[[Pokémon Trozei!]]: Ditto serves as a &quot;wild card&quot;, meaning it can Trozei with any Pokémon and must be used to get rid of Jammer Balls. One will appear when a Trozei is made with more Pokémon than necessary and multiple appear at the beginning of a new round in Endless and Forever mode to clear out the remaining Pokémon.<br />
*[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 1|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]: Ditto is found in many dungeons. In a complete twist from its previous appearance in Trozei, in this game it is quite useless. While Transform gives the user the appearance of a random Pokémon found on the current floor, it does not copy the opponent's moves or stats. In addition, it only has 1 PP, allowing only one use per dungeon without restoring items. After using Transform, Ditto's only options are to {{m|struggle}} or use the basic tackle attack exclusive to Mystery Dungeon.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Ditto is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 35.<br />
* Ditto and {{p|Manaphy}} are the only Pokémon that are both able to breed yet unobtainable through breeding. Ditto, however, is the only one of the two that is not available at level 1 legally (legitimately the lowest level it is able to be is 10, in [[Generation II]]).<br />
* Ditto is one of the few [[Generation I]] non-legendary Pokémon that have no evolutionary relatives, along with {{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, {{p|Tauros}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}}, and {{p|Lapras}}.<br />
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Ditto takes the form of {{p|Bulbasaur}} towards the begining of the game. The player can cause them to return to their Ditto form by hitting them with an object. When the player takes their picture, Professor Oak treats the photo as that of a real Bulbasaur, although Ditto has the same eyes when it is transformed as when it is not. This trait is shared by [[Duplica]]'s Ditto in the [[EP037|anime]], although it was understood that this was not natural.<br />
*Ditto is one of two Pokémon to have two different species-specific items associated with it, the other being {{p|Clamperl}}.<br />
<br />
===Glitches===<br />
Ditto is closely associated with several [[glitch]]es throughout the series, most stemming from its nearly unique ability.<br />
<br />
In [[Generation I]], if the player manages to capture an [['M]], an invisible wild Ditto will still be in battle with the player where 'M was before, and the battle will not end. Additionally, a Ditto is a necessary Pokémon for carrying out method #3 of the [[Mew glitch]], which allows the player to encounter any Pokémon or glitch Pokémon (correspondence based upon [http://www.trsrockin.com/hexlist.html this list]). Furthermore, switching the order of moves in a Transformed Ditto's movelist in-battle causes Ditto to have the {{m|--|blank space glitch move}} when the battle ends.<br />
<br />
By exploiting the factors that determine a {{shiny2}} Pokémon, a shiny Ditto can be obtained by trading the [[red Gyarados]] to Generation I and capturing a Ditto that transforms into it.<br />
<br />
Several more glitches involving Ditto's transformation have been discovered in [[Generation IV]] as well. In the original Japanese {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, due to an oversight in the programming of Transform, a Ditto will copy the Pokémon's [[held item]] in addition to its species, allowing rare items to be duplicated. Another glitch allows for Ditto to transform and then permanently keep the moveset of the Pokémon it became, allowing for the passing down of previously impossible [[egg move]] combinations in a large-scale version of {{p|Smeargle}}'s ability to do so with all {{egg2|Ground}} Pokémon through {{m|Sketch}}.<br />
<br />
===The Transform Paradox===<br />
If Ditto (or another Pokémon with only {{m|Transform}}) faces another Pokémon with Transform in a {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle where neither Trainer has any items and no Pokémon besides the Pokémon with Transform, the battle will never end. This is because when Transform is used, the Pokémon will turn into its opponent, resulting in a Transform moveset of, again, only Transform. Since every time Transform is used, it gives the Pokémon using it the target's moveset with 5 [[PP]] each, Transform will continue to Transform into itself, restoring the PP every time it is used. Due to this, one will never reach a point where it can only use {{m|Struggle}}, unlike what is the case with {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Wobbuffet}}. This is likely why no Trainers have Ditto in the Generation IV games, except in the {{si|Battle Tower}}, where one can always retire.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Ditto strongly resembles an {{wp|amoeba}}, a single-celled organism with no definite shape. This may emphasize its ability to alter its cellular composition. This could also explain why Ditto is unavailable through breeding, since single-celled organisms reproduce differently from multi-cellular plants and animals. It may also be based on an undifferentiated cell, a cell in the body that can change into any other cell by sampling it. It could also have be based on a {{wp|blob}}.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
A ''ditto'' is a substitute for repeating what was previously written or said. Ditto's Japanese name is a combination of ''{{wp|metamorph}}'', ''monster'', and possibly ''transformation''.<br />

'''The Lonely Snover!''' (Japanese: '''さびしがりやのユキカブリ！''' ''The Lonely {{tt|Yukikaburi|Snover}}!'') is the 121st episode of the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}, and the 587th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on April 2, 2009, as part of a one-hour special along with [[DP122]] and in the United States on August 22, 2009.<br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
==Synopsis==<br />
“Pausing for a moment on their way to Snowpoint City, and Ash’s next Sinnoh Gym Battle; A mountain cliff with a sprawling view catches their attention.” As they admire the view, they hear a group of {{p|Cherrim}} cheerfully singing in their sunshine form. {{an|Dawn}} comments on their cuteness, while Ash announces his restlessness on days such as this. Ash voices his eagerness for his battle in Snowpoint City, and Dawn remarks on this unaware they are being watched.<br />
<br />
Ash begins to train {{AP|Grotle}} and {{AP|Chimchar|Monferno}} in a battle, as Brock, Dawn, Piplup and Pikachu watch. Ash commands Grotle to use razor leaf, and Chimchar to dodge and use {{m|Flamethrower}}. Chimchar doges the storm of leaves, and unleashes its Flamethrower. Ash tells Grotle to dodge and use {{m|Bite}}, however due to its speed lost from evolving Grotle is hit in the side of the face. Grotle shakes off the attack and continues with its previous instructions. Grotle clenches its jaws onto Chimchar’s arm, pinning it to the ground. Brock and Dawn comment on how strong Grotle has become since it evolved. Ash orders Chimchar to knock Grotle off with another flamethrower. Temportarily phased by the flames, Grotle lets lose and backs away allowing Chimchar to stand up. Grotle remarks on Chimchar’s attack, and Ash calls an end to the training match. Ash praises Chimchar for a good job, then Grotle with Pikachu joining in. Ash notices Grotle’s exhaustion and suggest to Grotle to heal it self with Synthesis. Grotle agrees, and looks up at the sun using Synthesis. Healed it wallows with happiness, that is until a Power Snow hurtles towards it and the others. Ash and the gang are flash frozen in various poses of surprise, with the exception of Chimchar’s tail flame. A Snover pops out from behind a bush, and cautiously approaches. Snover investigates them, then breaks into a gleeful dance before noticing Chimchar’s still roaring tail flame. The flame melts and brakes free from the ice causing Snover to retreat in fear. Snover hides behind its bush, then peaks back to see Chimchar freshly thawed from the ice. Chimchar is a little dazed as it falls back, then it becomes fully aware when it sees the other’s frozen condition. Chimchar uses Flamethrower to thaw and free the others. Confused on what had taken place, they decide to go.<br />
<br />
{{p|Snover}} continues to stalk them from behind bushes, stopping to use {{m|Grass Knot}} against them. Ash falls causing Brock to rush to his aid, also falling victim to Grass Knot. Dawn begins to comment on how they should watch where they are going, only to met a similar fate. Brock questions the event, and observes two grass blades tied into a loop around his foot. Brock identifies it as a Grass Knot, and the group realizes that the strange events from before and this was caused by a Pokémon. Dawn suspects the Pokémon of still being around as Snover laughs. Ash calls attention to the bush Snover is hiding behind, and they go to investigate. Snover panics from their threats and uses it’s Ingrain attack, capturing Ash and the others. Snover comes out of hiding and dances mockingly, revealing who it was that been playing pranks on them. Ash, who had his hands free, pulls out his Pokédex to identify Snover. Thinking it has secured them, Snover approaches them. Ash angrily calls out Grotle and has it use Razor Leaf to free them. Snover preemptively uses Leaf Whistle to put everyone asleep, then happily goes over to Ash to wake him. Snover shakes Ash’s shoulder waking him up and surprising him. Snover gleefully hugs Ash, and snuggles him. Leaf Whistle’s effects wears off the others, who wake up to the scene. Dawn questions Ash on what was happening, and Ash replies that Snover is showing what he’s like friendly. Snover lets go of Ash, picking a Snoverberry off itself for Ash. Ash accepts, causing Dawn and Brock to examine the strange gift. Ash splits his giving half to Brock, and Snover hands Dawn a whole one. They all split their shares with the Pokémon and consume the pieces. They are surprised by the taste, and then they thank Snover. Brocks comes up with the conclusion that Snover used all the pranks so he could stop them, then share the fruit with them. Snover becomes embarrassed as Ash comments on how extreme its approach was, while Team Rocket spies on them from above. From their balloon, Team Rocket begin to plan a scheme to give Snover to the Boss. They fantasize about the Boss opening up Snoverberry stands, and becoming richer by cornering the market thus giving them an award. They cheer happily, with James the only one to question if a Snover can produced enough berries.<br />
<br />
Night falls and Ash and the others are enjoying dinner with the Pokémon. Snover displays a healthy appetite, enjoying all of the attention. After dinner Ash and his friends say their goodnights to Snover, but Snover is reluctant to leave his friends. They notice this behavior and Ash invites Snover for breakfast, in extension to staying the night with them. Snover eagerly accepts in a comical manner, much to the other’s amusement. As the group sleeps, Team Rocket lands their balloon. With a robotic arm, they steal a berry and eat it. They all cry in joy from the flavor, and compares the berries to perfection and paradise. They regain their composure, extending the robotic arm to net Snover. Pikacu and Piplup alert the others, and team rocket begin their motto. Having dressed during the motto, Ash questions Team Rocket on what they were doing with Snover. Jessie reveals their plan to give Snover to the boss, and use its berries to make them rich. Ash angrily refuses to let them have Snover, callign Grotle out and commanding it to use Razor Leaf on the net and free Snover. Snover quickly takes shelter behind Ash, who then tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt. Pikachu zapsTeam Rocket, causing Jessie to become furious. Jessie calls out Yanmega to do a Silver Wind. Yanmega’s Silver Wind strikes at Ash and his friends feet, causing them to be distracted as James calls out Carnivine. Carivines, as per usual and much to Jessie and Meowth’s dismay, bites James’s head upon release. James commands {{TP|James|Carnivine}} to use {{m|Bullet Seed}}, and it to strikes at the Ash and the others feet. Team Rocket takes this opportunity to escape, and Ash commands Grotle to stop them with Razor Leaf. Grotle is however unable to reach much to its churnings. Ash has Pikachu use Iron Tail, who dashes up the mountain side and attacking Team Rocket’s Balloon. The balloon ruptures and sends Team Rocket blasting off. Snover celebrates by dancing happily their victory, as Pikachu and Piplup comments.<br />
<br />
The next morning Dawn comments on the weather, while the gang has breakfast. Snover tricks Chimchar out of its Pokéfood, which causes Chimchar to become unhappy. Snover apologizes and presents Chimchar with its food, and ah comments on it liking practical jokes. Brock suggest that they move on, and Ash tells the Pokémon to get ready. Ash finishes recalling everyone but Grotle. Ash looks for Grotle and notice some wild Pokémon perched on Grotle’s back. Ash and the others investigate and find nuts growing on its back, which the Pokémon were enjoying. Ash samples one and finds out it doesn’t taste good to humans, but great to Pokémon as Pikachu gladly finishes it. The realization that some Pokémon grow such things as nuts and berries on their bodies reminds the gang of the wonder and mystery of Pokémon. Things don’t stay peaceful long though, as Team Rocket launches a surprise attack and captures Grotle and Snover in a cage. Ash and Pikachu retaliate with Thunderbolt, but Team Rocket has installed their balloon from electric attacks. Thinking quickly, Ash tells Grotle to use Energy Ball and destroy Team Rocket’s cage. Grotle blows the side off, and causing Team Rocket’s balloon to descend. The cage rocks, and to everyone’s horror Grotle falls out hurtling towards the ground. Snover uses {{m|Ingrain}} to catch Grotle, setting it down safely. Ash and the others run up to Grotle, and call to Snover to jump and they’ll catch it but its to scared to move. Jessie tells them that they’re one step ahead of them, and Meowth actives the balloon’s rocket engines. Snover holds on to the cage in fright, and Ash and the others go after them. Ash tells {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and Dawn tells Piplup to use Bubble but they miss. Grotle who is lagging behind the others trips, and becomes discouraged at how slow he is. Remember how nice Snover is, and hearing it cry in fear Grotle stands up strong, roaring with a outburst of energy. Grotle use Synthesis, then its claws began to grow and illuminate as it prepared for Rock Climb. Grotle stampeded pass the others climbing the cliff side. Ash and Pikachu cheer Grotle on, as it trailed behind Team Rocket. Trying to outrun Grotle, Team Rocket takes their balloon up higher. Grotle gets on the top of cliff and launches into the air. To Team Rockets Surprise it slashes through their balloon and sends them blasting off again. As Grotle lands, Snover unconsciously spins to the ground. Everyone rushes to catch Snover before its to late, with Brock calling {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} to catch Snover. Happiny speeds ahead but isn’t fast enough to make it in time. Grotle however saves the day by launching off the side of the cliff, and using bite to catch Snover. Grotle drops Snover into Happini’s arms and lands on the ground. Weak Grotle collapses, and Ash and Snover rush to show how impressed they were and to thank it.<br />
<br />
Later they approach the foot of the mountain, when a group of school children notice Snover. Excited about seeing a Snover, the children hurry over with their teacher following behind. Brock falls for the teacher and scatters over to her, and begin flirting. However, as usual, Croagunk uses {{m|Poison Jab}} to disable Brock. Croagunk drags Brock away, as Ash, Dawn and the Pokémon approach. The kids run over to Snover and gather around it as it danced happily. Snover gives the Teacher a Snoverberry, which Brock (recovered from Croagunk’s Poison Jab) tells them is very delicious. The teacher splits the berry up into pieces so all the kids could have some, and they are delighted by the taste. The teacher thanks Snover, and the kids and Snover begin playing together. The teacher then ask Ash and the others if they were Pokémon trainers, to which Ash eagerly replies. Dawn specifies that she is a Coordinator, and the teacher asks if she was there for the Sandalstraw Town tournament. Unaware of the contest, the teacher reveals to Dawn that they were close to Sandalstraw Town and a upcoming contest. The group decides to go to Sandalstraw Town so Dawn could enter the contest. Ash tells Snover they have to go, but with his new friends he shouldn’t be lonely anymore. The gang say their goodbyes and make their way to Sandalstraw Town.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The Pokédex image of Snover is the same as its Game Artwork. [[File:ArtYukikaburi.png|Game Artwork|thumb]][[File:Snodex1.png|Pokédex image|thumb]]<br />
* ''[[Together]]'' is used as background music.<br />
* This is the first episode in which a main character's Pokémon explicitly uses a current [[HM]] move.<br />
* This episode marks the first time [[Ash's Grotle]] has used {{m|Energy Ball}} since evolving from {{p|Turtwig}}. <br />
** In fact, this is the first episode where Ash's Grotle used another move apart from {{m|Razor Leaf}} since its evolution in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]''.<br />
*Snover's {{m|Grasswhistle}} is a remix of Oracion.<br />
* After eating a piece of Snoverberry, Jessie says &quot;full speed to Shangri-La.&quot; This is a reference to the fictional Himalayan utopia {{wp|Shangri-La}} from {{wp|James Hilton}}'s novel {{wp|Lost Horizon}}. Snover is a mountain dwelling Ice Pokémon and the Himalayas are a freezing cold mountain range. Thus Jessie felt like she ate a piece of cold paradise.<br />
* The dub title is the English equivalent of the original title, the first title that is a direct translation since ''[[DP014|Leave It To Brocko!]]''.<br />
<br />
===Changes===<br />
[[File:DP121 new title card.png|The new title card|thumb]]<br />
[[File:New tbc.png|The new &quot;To be continued&quot;|thumb]]<br />
* Much like ''[[EP261|Here's Looking at You, Elekid]]'' before it, this episode begins a new era for the Pokémon anime, as it switches from a 4:3 aspect ratio to a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, while broadcasting in high-definition for the first time.<br />
** However, [[Cartoon Network]]'s standard definition feed still aired the episode in a 4:3 aspect ratio.&lt;!--Can anyone check to see if it aired in HD on CN's high-definition feed?--&gt;<br />
** To match this, the opening ''[[~Battle Cry~ (Stand Up!)]]'' had its animation changed to include scenes fron ''[[High Touch!]]'' and [[DP129]].<br />
*** As a result, this is the second episode to feature a running change in an active dub opening, after [[AG105|''Once in a Mawile'']]'s running change to [[Unbeatable]].<br />
* A new title card is introduced. It features the [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s {{Ash}} currently has and {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s {{an|Dawn}} earned. It also features the silhouettes of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, with the [[Notched-ear Pichu]] under the title. The Pichu was for a Japanese contest only so she did not appear in the dub version's title card.<br />
* The new [[eyecatch]]es are introduced. This time, Ash was positioned at the center for the first eyecatch and Dawn was positioned at the center of the second eyecatch. Previously, Dawn was at the center of the eyecatches. In addition, a quiz in Japan was introduced where residents from Japan had to answer where the Notched-ear Pichu appeared in.<br />
* The font used for the &quot;To be continued&quot; text at the end of the episode has been changed, after being the same since [[EP001]].<br />
<br />
===Errors===<br />
[[File:Staraptormissingdot.png|The error|thumb]]<br />
* In one scene, the dot on Staraptor's head is missing.<br />
* In the scene where Snover gives out his berries, his tail is the same color as his body.<br />
